Alicia's Awesome Adventures for Awareness of MND

Hi there!
Thanks for visiting my page and for donating (hopefully!) to this very worthy cause. MND QLD is the only MND body across Australia to NOT receive any government support. Whilst MND is a relatively uncommon condition, it is also a condition that occurs in middle age most commonly. This means that there is significant inequality - some of our clients CAN access NDIS and others (over 65s) get to go on a wait list for a Home Care Package which is nowhere near comparable.

Sadly, no-one survives an MND Diagnosis. MND takes away a person's ability to move, communicate, and even breathe. Whilst not personally affected by MND, I watched my mum face similar challenges - losing her ability to walk, use her arms, and speak as she fought brain cancer. I've experienced the challenges of transitioning from daughter to carer, and experienced the profound grief of watching someone dear to you pass away.

This makes me so passionate about trying to raise funds for MND Queensland so that the organisation (of which I am proud to now be a part of) can continue to support MND clients and their loved ones as they face this challenging time.

MND QLD provides clients with:
* Advisory and Support coordination services
* Allied health services (physio, OT, Speech)
* Equipment hire
* Support groups & Education
* Voice Banking
* Life stories legacy program

Your kind donation will help us continue to help Queenslanders who are affected by MND. Please donate generously and know I am forever grateful!

Much Love, Alicia xoxo
