This donation was the surplus raised at the MBCA annual dinner last year and is donated to the president's nominated charity. The IMNDA would like to take the opportunity to thank the MBCA for their very generous donation. All funds received will go towards helping people with Motor Neurone Disease, by providing specialised equipment and assistance towards home help.

He held the position of chairman of the Institute of Obstetricians & Gynaecologists and was National Speciality Director. He made a phenomenal contribution to obstetrics & gynaecology at both clinical and national strategic levels.
Rory was and will always remain one of life's true gentlemen; he is survived by his wife Siobhan and two children, Anna & David.
