The Motor Neurone Disease Association’s Cost of Living Support Fund has been shortlisted under the Best Service Delivery Innovation category in the Third Sector Awards.
The fund, which forms part of our financial support grant programme, allows people living with MND the opportunity to claim £350 to help with soaring costs of food, fuel and energy bills. This is in addition to the claim limit of £3,000 per person within any 12-month rolling period.
Although initially launched as a one-month trial, the fund was extended to continue to meet the needs of the community. To date, around a quarter of a million pounds has been paid out to people living with MND, providing tangible support throughout the crisis.
The awards ceremony will take place on Friday 22 September at the Royal Lancaster Hotel in London.
