Thank you to Liz Stephens along with her family and friends who organised the Calwell Winter Indoor Fair in Canberra in support of MND.

A big thank you to Faye Wheeler who again organised a Dubbo Ladies Shopping Trip which raised $1,200 for MND NSW. Faye said of the event, "Another fabulous weekend with a great group of girls. Lots of fun, laughter, fundraising and of course shopping." Thank you ladies for your wonderful support!
This past year, we’ve been walking all over NSW and the ACT with our incredible supporters, working together to d’Feet MND. Thank you to everyone who has been involved in these Walk to d’Feet MND events—it’s because of you’ve that each has been such an amazing success.
Our last walk for the year We got a little trendy with our last walk for the year, holding it in Sydney’s Inner West. We had over 500 people turn up for the event and to date, we’ve raised an incredible $77,188.28, just for this Sydney Walk.
It’s been a big year But Sydney was by no means the only walk we’ve organised. In fact, it’s been a huge year, with a total of eight Walk to d’Feet MND events having been held all over NSW and the ACT, including two new walk locations of Taree and Young.
