All MND NSW offices and InfoLine will be closed for the holiday period from 12pm on Friday 23 December 2022 and reopen on Monday 9 January 2023.

Phones and emails will not be monitored during this time.

On 3 December 2022 we celebrate International Day of People with Disability (IDPwD).

The theme is “Transformative solutions for inclusive development: the role of innovation in fueling an accessible and equitable world.”

In our very first Volunteer Spotlight, we'd like to introduce Deidree, who has been volunteering for MND NSW since 2012.

Deidree has been holding stalls in shopping centres each month in the Bateman's Bay area, raising awareness about motor neurone disease and selling MND NSW merchandise to help fund the support, equipment and education services we offer to people living with MND, their carers and families.

Today we celebrate and promote the work of Occupational Therapists worldwide.

The theme is Opportunity + Choice = Justice.

National Carers Week runs from Sunday 16 to Saturday 22 October 2022 with the theme – Millions of Reasons to Care.

Millions of Reasons to Care, aims to broaden the communities understanding of the caring role, increase carer identification and provide the community with more reasons to care about carers.
