A fantastic addition to the ‘myMND’ information resources. Developed in collaboration with people living with MND, helping inform about the option to start non-invasive ventilation (NIV). Check it out and share far and wide @mndassoc @SYMNDA mybreathing.mymnd.org.uk

Really inspiring talk by dietitian Sean White, on the importance of MDT working and how we present information to patients in an accessible and timely fashion to support complex decision making for alternative feeding @UKSRG2 #UKSRG2020 #MND @mndassoc

Let's start 2020 the way we mean to carry on, by raising awareness of motor neurone disease. Please retweet our graphic which highlights some of the key facts about the disease. Together we can achieve our vision of a world free from #MND 🧡 thank you for your support!

Over 420 posters will be displayed at this year's #alsmndsymp in Perth. These laid end to end would cover the arch span of the Sydney Harbour Bridge! What an amazing amount of #MND research 🤯
