However, 130 people in Scotland are diagnosed with it each year.

Shawlands Chiropractic recently held a charity day in memory of one sufferer, Billy McAlaney, (pictured )who passed away in August this year.

They managed to raise more than a whopping £1,000 for MND Scotland on December 5 — just 20 days before Christmas.

Services were provided free of charge for the entire day and clients were asked for a monetary donation of whatever amount they thought fair.

The people of Shawlands generously responded.
