Because with MND, every day matters.

Jaki is a born performer, taking to the boards as Nancy in Oliver! Now, MND has stripped away the things she loved - like performing. Help us stop it. Visit mndassoc.org/life-stripped-a… .
Before MND stripped away the things she loved, Jaki loved to sing. 🎶
Imagine losing the ability to do something that brings you joy. What's one thing you'd hate to no longer be able to do?

Go Oscar go! 🧡👏
After being inspired by reading ‘Try’, the children's book written by Sir Kev, 7 year old Oscar set himself a challenge to raise money for MND: walking every day for 7 days! And that’s just the beginning - he plans to walk 77 miles before Christmas to continue to raise vital funds.
We’re so proud to have you on the team Oscar, thank you for everything you are doing. 🧡

This party conference season, we met with over 150 MPs, councillors and peers across the political spectrum so people affected by MND are heard by those who can make real change happen. Here's a message from our Director of Engagement, Richard, to say thank you for the part YOU played.
"When a drug shows no benefit, it’s discarded and we go again and again until we hit on something that works." shared Mike Rogers, our Director of Research, following the latest results from the EXPERT-ALS study.
The second set of results from the study have shown that the drug ropinirole is not likely to be an effective treatment for people with MND. The researchers will stop testing this drug in new study participants, and people in the study who are currently taking it will stop.
