The
Motor Neurone Disease Association
The
Merseyside Branch of the Motor Neurone Disease Association
has the sole aim of serving all those people in the area affected
by Motor Neurone Disease (MND). This includes people with
MND, their carers, family and friends.
MND
is an incurable condition that paralyses the muscles leaving
people unable to do everyday things the rest of us take for
granted. Walking talking and swallowing become virtually impossible,
yet the mind and senses remain intact.
We
also liaise with health and social care professionals such
as speech therapists, occupational therapists and the medical
profession.
Our
Branch holds regular Branch and support meetings for people
living with MND, their carers and families.
Fundraising
and raising awareness are also very important aspects of Branch
activities, and we are organising several events throughout
the year.
Merseyside
Branch is completely run by volunteers. We are always interested
in hearing from people who can help with the events or who
would like to help us.
