It is Feeding Tube Awarness Week: 4-10 February 2024.

Kieran Kelly hosted a Christmas lights community fundraiser throughout December, putting on a fantastic festive display to support MND NSW.

Thank you to Ray White Newcastle for supporting the event, and to LuLu's Gelato Company who stopped by Kieran's amazing light show one night during December, donating proceeds from the sale of their delicious gelato to MND NSW!

Thanks to your generous support, MND NSW has funded grants for two researchers as part of the 2024 MNDRA research grant program.
