Social Media Officer (Volunteer) Lincolnshire

The MND Association was founded in 1979. Our mission is to improve care and support for people with MND, their families and carers. We also fund and promote research that leads to new understanding and treatments and brings us closer to a cure for MND. The Association also campaigns and raises awareness so the needs of people with MND, and everyone who cares for them, are recognised, and addressed by wider society.

 “I enjoy knowing that I am helping to raise awareness and funds for such an amazing charity. It is a great feeling to know you are making a difference in some way.” Sammy, Volunteer
