MND Scotland
30th Anniversary Year 2011
Please Help - We Need Your Photos
More than 3000 people in Scotland have had MND since the charity was founded in 1981. As part of our 30th Anniversary we are aiming to raise awareness of MND by creating a mosaic of photos featuring as many of these people as possible.
Can you send us a photograph and help us to fill in the blank spaces? Read more...
Supporting people affected by MND
Motor Neurone Disease stops the nerve cells that control the body’s movement from sending messages to muscles. MND is often rapid and always fatal. There is no known cure.
There are currently 375 people living in Scotland with MND, and more than 130 people will be diagnosed this year.
MND Scotland is the only charity providing care and support for people with MND and their carers, while also funding research into the disease. Everyone with MND in Scotland receives direct care from our team of Care Specialists who also ensure that our information and support services can be accessed after diagnosis and throughout the progression of the disease.
