We raise funds to enable us to provide practical help and information to people with MND, and to fund research that we hope will develop effective alleviating treatment for MND and, one day, find a cure.
We receive no national or local government funding and are entirely reliant on our own fund raising efforts and the generosity of our supporters.

Some of our past events and fundraisers
West London Queer Project 10k Walk and Pride Celebration
For the second year running the West London Queer Project once more used their Pride Month Celebration Walk to raise funds for us.
The event took place on 8 June 2024 at the picturesque Furnival Gardens in Hammersmith. Proceedings began just after 10 o’clock with welcome words from the highly entertaining drag queen Beary Poppins, event organiser Aubrey Crawley from WLQP, and local dignitaries including Councillor Patricia Quigley, the Mayor of Hammersmith & Fulham.
After some fun warm-up exercises before starting a gentle 10K walk, crossing Hammersmith Bridge and following the Thames Path along the south side of the river, passing through some beautiful areas. The walk ended at a pub, with supportive marshals encouraging us throughout the journey.
The celebration continued with drinks and burgers, featuring heartfelt speeches by Jim Marshall, Trustee of the MND Association. Jim thanked WLQP for organising such a great event and paid tribute to Zoe Nixon who is living with MND and is the inspiration for WLQP dedicating the monies raised by the walk to our branch. The afternoon continued with more acts and songs and a great time was truly had by all.
We extend huge thanks to WLQP and all involved in organising this wonderful event, and of course, everyone who participated and donated to our branch.
A fantastic bucket collection at Brentford FC
We were given a wonderful opportunity by Brentford Football Club to raise funds, with a bucket collection at their match on Saturday 7 May 2022. Their match against Southampton promised a very large crowd.
The club’s generous offer included 12 tickets for collectors to watch the match. Plus, extra tickets for people living with MND and their carers, with easy access to parking nearby.
The collection, and some background on MND, was publicised by the Club. A Just Giving page for this event was set up too, with QR codes displayed on the collection buckets to make it easy for those without cash to donate.
Thanks to all these efforts over £1650 was raised. A truly fantastic sum!
