MND Association
Every day in the UK six people are diagnosed with motor neurone disease (MND) – a terminal, neurological condition which affects up to 5,000 people at any one time.
MND is a disease like no other. It affects the brain and spinal cord leaving people unable to speak, eat or even breathe. More than 80% of people affected by MND also experience changes to their speech, or lose the ability to speak entirely. At present, there are no effective treatments for MND – there is no cure.
The MND Association exists to support people living with MND, their families and carers, while driving forward the global fight against MND through investment in ground-breaking research.
For people living with MND across Cheshire we help to provide access to multidisciplinary care through the Manchester Care Centre while volunteers offer friendship and support through regular meetings of the Association’s Manchester and District Branch.
Thanks to the generous support of MaccBeerFest, the Association will use the money raised to help provide support grants to many more people living with the devastating effects of MND, helping to make lives just a little bit easier for families across the region.
We couldn’t be more grateful for your support.
“We are so grateful to the team at MaccBeerFest for choosing the MND Association as its Charity of Year, helping to raise vital funds and awareness of this cruel disease.
Every penny you help to raise during the course of this fabulous weekend will make a huge difference to people who are living with MND and their families. Through our range of support grants, we can offer help in a very practical way, helping to fund access to equipment, days out and contributions to support carers and young carers. Our Cost-of-Living Fund is also there to support anyone living with MND who is facing financial hardship as a result of the ongoing cost of living crisis.
To people living with MND and their families, your support really does mean the world, thank you.”
