Hi there, I'm hoping to raise money for the Irish Motor Neurone Disease Association and those who suffer with the terrible condition that is Motor Neurone Disease by not using my voice for 24 hours from 7am on Wednesday the 27th February to 7am on Thursday the 28th February. In my capacity as an Occupational Therapist I work closely with the IMNDA and I see first hand evidence of the incredible work that this organisation does in aiding and supporting individuals and families struck down by this cruel disease.
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.
The cause of MND is not known. There may be environmental factors that trigger the damage in people who are susceptible to the disease. Ongoing research is necessary to find out the nature of these environmental factors, and what makes one person more susceptible than another.
MND strikes people of all ages and currently there is no cure. Let's support those that have lost or will inevitably lose their voice. Your donation, no matter the amount, will help the IMNDA to provide MND sufferers with vital alternative ways to communicate. Anything helps. Thank you so much for your support. I've included information about The Irish Motor Neurone Disease Association below.
• The Irish Motor Neurone Disease Association (IMNDA) is a registered charity whose members are at the forefront of what we do.
• IMNDA supports people with motor neurone disease (MND), their families and carers through advocacy, home and professional support.
• IMNDA fundraises to help people with MND and support the vital research undertaken.
• All of this is underpinned by a Board and staff who seek to provide the best governance for the IMNDA’s activities.

The Irish Motor Neurone Disease Association (IMNDA) is the only organisation of its kind in the country providing specialised services to families affected by this terminal condition. The Association cannot slow the progression of MND or change the outcome but we can alleviate the feelings of isolation and frustration. We offer consistent support to approximately 450 families across Ireland who otherwise would have nowhere else to turn. Everybody with MND has different needs at different stag
