Following in the frozen footsteps of David Beckham, Justin Timberlake and Steven Gerrard, St Peter & St James Hospice raised money for this charity because a number of patients are living with Motor Neurone Disease. One huge bucket was used which was part of a tractor carrying ice and gallons of water. You can see the challenge at www.facebook.com/StPeterStJames on the Hospice’s Facebook page. The Hospice wishes to thank John Bedford, from Town Place Farm and Equestrian Centre, Scaynes Hill, for supplying the tractor and making the challenge possible. For more information on the ice bucket challenge, please go to the Motor Neurone Disease Association’s website - www.mndassociation.org
