More than 80% of people living with MND will have difficulty speaking. Take part in Silence Speaks to show them your support. Experience, albeit for a short while, the challenges they face.

Silence speaks is more than a sponsored silence, it's about finding other ways to communicate. Using apps, whiteboards, notepads or even miming. In previous years people taking part have attended family parties, delivered a class, presented at an assembly and even taken part in a running event all while being silent.

You can take part at any time of the year, but we're making October our Silence Speaks month. So follow us on social media for news and updates during October from people, groups and schools taking part.
