The threesome - which included retired businessman Ken Holway from Leighton Buzzard – are part of a 40-strong group that splits the proceeds from most of its gigs between MND and and Yawn 16, a club for young adults with learning disabilities.

They are also happy to play for any charity which approaches them.

Chair of MND’s Luton & South Bedfordshire branch Ann Murphy said: “We’re so grateful to Ukie Toones for their ongoing support. It means a great deal to patients and their families.
