MND Youth Hub

Young carers play a big part in the journey of someone diagnosed with MND, and they need a robust support network. The MND National Youth Hub provides information, support and tools for young carers ages 5 to 24 years old.

 

Youth Hub

The Youth Hub is a space for young carers to connect with other young people from across the country who are sharing similar experiences. A young carer is a person between 5 and 24 years of age and who is connected to a person who is living with Motor Neurone Disease (MND). This may be a friend or family member.

Are you between 12 and 24 years old and connected to a person living with MND? We are looking for a mascot or logo for young carers in your age group! So, if you enjoy drawing or designing on Canva or other programs, this is for you! Find out how to enter here.

If you are 12 to 16 years old and you want to help create the Youth Hub for your age group then email us at This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. to join our wonderful team of creators!
