@NICEComms MUST review their decision. Experts disagree, patients disagree. @GOVUK want country to be leaders in research but this is a step backwards. Personalised medicine is gaining momentum & we aren’t keeping pace. Another kick in the teeth for MND community #listenplease

Thousands of unpaid carers are being forced to repay vast sums due to minor breaches of the Carer's Allowance rules. The #SupportMNDCarers campaign has long been calling for urgent reform of this benefit, particularly removing the limited eligibility rules.
Great-grandmother Kathleen recently celebrated her 100th birthday. Rather than asking for presents she received donations in memory of her son Michael who died of #MND 6 years ago. She received over £1000 in donations! A huge happy birthday to you Kathleen 💙
