Objectives

The Motor Neurone Disease Association is the only national charity in England, Wales and Northern Ireland focused on MND care, research and campaigning.

We are a membership organisation with nearly 8,000 members forming a powerful national and local network that provides information and support alongside fighting for improved services.

We now have over 3,000 active volunteers in England, Wales and Northern Ireland and 140-plus paid staff, all dedicated to improving the lives of people affected by MND, now and in the future.

Activities

Our vision of “A world free from MND"

We improve care and support for people with MND, their families and carers.

We fund and promote research that leads to new understanding and treatments, and brings us closer to a cure for MND.

We campaign and raise awareness so the needs of people with MND and everyone who cares for them are recognised and addressed by wider society.

People with MND, their families and carers are at the heart of everything we do.
We collaborate, and value everyone’s contribution.

We achieve excellence through personal commitment and ongoing improvement.

We respect and respond to people’s diverse needs, backgrounds and views.

We achieve our aims through building open and transparent relationships.
