"I had a lot of difficulty in finding information. I also didn’t know what I didn’t know" Paul Watson, MND NSW Member, has been the driving force behind our latest online resource I have MND. Now What? and it is one of the many resources that your support has helped fund for all people living with MND. Thanks for your support!

What a great morning we had with the team from the Fleet Support Unit (FSU) at South East Kuttabul, Garden Island. The members of the FSU competed in the “Amazing Race” to raise funds and awareness for MND. Twenty teams consisting of 6 members, guys and girls, took on 8 challenges including a Sudoku challenge, wheel chair obstacle course, and in the final challenge a team member was nominated for an Ice Bucket Challenge. Over $850 was raised on the day, what a great result! The FSU will also be assisting MND NSW with their engineering skills to repair equipment from the MND NSW equipment pool. Thank you to everyone involved, we look forward to a great partnership with this Navy Unit.
