As some of you will know, my uncle, Martin Wallace was diagnosed with MND and sadly passed away in October 2016.  The Irish Motor Neuron Disease Association were of great support to Martin and his family during the time of his illness, we can see first hand the positive effect it can have on someone's life in times of support.  Funds will also help with research.

There is great support given by the Irish Motor Neuron Disease Association and your help with a donation will greatly help other people living with this disease and their families.

Motor Neurone Disease (MND) is a progressive neurological condition that attacks the motor neurones, or nerves, in the brain and spinal cord. This means messages gradually stop reaching the muscles, which leads to weakness and wasting.

MND can affect how you walk, talk, eat, drink and breathe. However, not all symptoms necessarily happen to everyone and it is unlikely they will all develop at the same time, or in any specific order.
