Eddie's Birthday is in two days time, on 6th January. Instead of sending gift

a social media network of his fans is organizing an initiative, where
people can donate to the Motor Neurone Disease Association.

You can be sure, he will read you message!

"I’ve been working with people who suffer from motor neuron disease [Hawking’s affliction], 
and I’m one of the patrons of the MNDA, which is the British association. This disease has 
been around for over a hundred years or longer, and we’re not any closer to finding a cure. 
That has a lot to do with the fact that not many people have it, so pharmaceutical companies 
won’t invest in research. [Recently] there was the Ice Bucket Challenge, and people were 
critical of it because everyone was jumping on the bandwagon. But it was raising awareness. 
I think the disease has a branding problem because it’s called different things, like motor 
neuron disease, MND, in the UK, ALS, Lou Gehrig’s disease..." - Eddie Redmayne
