A Dip a Day in May

Get ready to make a splash for a great cause!

2024 marks the 10 year anniversary of the ice bucket challenge.

The ice bucket challenge grew organically to raise a phenomenal $220m globally with 28 million videos uploaded in 159 countries.

£500,000 was raised for MND Scotland, which has been used to fund research and support people in Scotland living with MND. We can’t thank you enough if you took on the challenge and donated to MND Scotland. Click here to read more from our 2014 campaign.

This year we will share throwback content of ice bucket challenges from 10 years ago, and also share stories about how the money you raised has been spent.  10 years on, people with motor neuron disease still need your help to fund ground-breaking research into effective treatments and a cure for this brutal disease.

This year we will support a range of activities to remember the ice bucket challenge and raise vital funds. To get involved, please get in touch with our fundraising team, or click the register button below. You can also donate at anytime via our website or Just Giving

Greg's year long challenge

Every single day in 2024, Greg is bravely taking on the Ice Bucket Challenge, to raise funds for MND Scotland. 

This challenge not only commemorates his father’s memory but also marks the 10-year anniversary of the Ice Bucket Challenge going viral.
