Story

Members of Avvio are walking to raise much needed funds to support IMNDA for their Christmas Fundraiser.

We plan to walk the distance from our furthest colleague in Germany, back to our Head office in Limerick between all our team members, and along the way hit the locations of our other colleagues, London, Dublin, Mullingar, Youghal etc. This is approximately 1000 miles which we aim to complete before the 16th of December 2020.

About the charity

The Irish Motor Neurone Disease Association (IMNDA) is the only organisation of its kind in the country providing specialised services to families affected by this terminal condition. The Association cannot slow the progression of MND or change the outcome but we can alleviate the feelings of isolation and frustration. We offer consistent support to approximately 400 families across Ireland who otherwise would have nowhere else to turn. Everybody with MND has different needs at different stages of their journey and we are here to help and guide them every step of the way. The services provided by the IMNDA are immediate and free of charge for everyone registered with the Association. Key services include: • Access to 4 outreach nurses directly employed by the IMNDA and funded entirely by donations. • Access to a home care grant. • Access to specialised equipment on loan (e.g. wheelchairs, hoists, communication aids etc). • Access to funding towards counselling sessions for the person with MND and family members. Your support is absolutely vital. More than 86% of our income comes from fundraising and donations.
