In short, FND is a condition that arises from a problem with how the brain and nervous system sends and receives signals, rather than an identifiable disease process. FND encompasses a diverse range of neurological symptoms including limb weakness, paralysis, seizures, gait issues, spasms, twitching, sensory issues and more. Advancement in research into FND has led to it being now identified as a 'brain network disorder'.
The exact prevalence of FND is unknown, however research suggests around 50-100,000 people (men, women and children) are living with FND in the UK.
Your donation has the power to transform lives, and for the first time since the charity began we are reaching out for your help.
FND is a complex condition that leaves many patients feeling isolated and misunderstood. By contributing to FND Action, you help us provide vital support services, educational resources, and advocacy efforts that directly improve the quality of life for those affected by FND.
