Volunteer fundraising awards 2019 winners!
Our fourth volunteer fundraising awards ceremony was one of the best yet! Nominees came from all over the country to join us on the 1 June in the Birmingham Park Regis hotel for a meal and ceremony. This year, we had two categories from which winners were chosen. Our adult’s category, Most Inspiring Volunteer, gave the chance to vote for two inspirational volunteers. Whereas our children’s award, Young Volunteer of The Year, allowed for one vote. Our finalists included some incredible and inspirational Huntington’s Disease Association volunteer fundraisers, but there could only be three winners!
Young Volunteer of The Year award went to…
Eli & Isaac Greer
“We played piano and sang as part of the Tickle the Ivories event over three slots at Liverpool ONE in August and managed to raise a fabulous sum for the Huntington's Disease Association. We are hoping to raise even more in 2019!”
Award for most Inspiring Volunteer went to…
Rosie Allen
“I ran the London Marathon to help aid the fundraising efforts we do every year as a family for the Huntington’s Disease Association. I also organised a charity ball for the March before the marathon to support my fundraising, this was such an amazing night that everyone enjoyed and we had so many amazing prizes.”

Jo Hague
“Last year was a big year for us as a family, particularly for my older sister Clare. She decided to be tested for Huntington’s disease. So, I decided to apply to for a Golden Ticket to run the London Marathon. Supporters also turned up to a quiz night and a fashion show that I organised, my uncle Ian hosted a special art exhibition of his own artwork and my school even chose the association for a charity dress down day.”
We are so proud of all our volunteers and want to thank everyone for their attendance. Congratulations to not only our winners but to everyone who dedicates their time to fundraising and raising awareness of Huntington’s disease.
