Edinburgh's Doddie Weir honoured by renowned mouth artist in aid of MND research

A renowned mouth artist has unveiled his new artwork that pays homage to his her - rugby legend Doddie Weir.

Artist Henry Fraser, 23, was left paralysed from the shoulders after a freak driving accident back in 2009 and has created his own take on the iconic Doddie's Tartan in a bid to raise funds for vital research into Motor Neuron Disease (MND).

The piece “embodies what it means to turn life’s hardships on their head”, and features powerful quotes from both Henry and Doddie, who revealed his own MND diagnosis six years ago.
