About Moonstone

Moonstone Website

The Moonstone Appeal has brought together a dynamic Appeal Committee, led by Chairman Michael Gelder who has a long career in the banking industry and has also led successful appeals following the Tsunami in 2004 delivering over 160 fishing boats, over 200 homes, a community building and 2 schools.

The Fundraising Manager – Julian Withers - has over 6 years fundraising experience, having worked on delivering a £10m appeal for a Bristol based Cancer charity and over 10 years general management experience. Other members of the Appeal Committee cover areas such as Accountancy, Financial Planning, Research and Networking with businesses within the Bristol area.

The Patron of the Appeal is former Broadcaster, Cricketer and Rugby Player Alastair Hignell who won the 2008 BBC Sports Personality of the Year Helen Rollason Award for raising awareness about MS. We are also working with Jon Bowles of Perpetual Legacy who is currently working with Norwich and Coventry MS Therapy Centres and is responsible for over 100 GP Surgeries and NHS medical buildings around the country.
