Background on subject – Spencer (Spenny) Bates. By his brother, Stuart (co-founder of Artists Against MND)
“Spencer ‘Spenny’ Bates was a complete one off. A talented musician and wonderful father, he held a special place in the hearts of all who knew him, and this was reflected by having more than 750 people attend his funeral. He was many things to many people, a well-known and talented musician, a keen footballer, a loyal and trusted friend and always the party starter! Whilst living with this terrible disease (Motor Neurone Disease), Spenny worked tirelessly to raise as much awareness of and money for Motor Neurone Disease research and wanted his legacy to be that his family carried on in his name until a cure is found. The family continue to fundraise to this day.
He is much loved and missed by so many.”
