MND Research updates

While there is still much to learn about motor neurone disease (MND), understanding of this complex condition is continually improving and there are many researchers using a variety of techniques to develop potential new treatments.

Resources to help carers avoid ‘carer burnout’

While caring for a loved one with MND can be very rewarding, it also involves many stressors. It can be difficult for carers to find time for themselves and since caregiving can be an ongoing challenge, the emotional impact can snowball over time. And so, it’s important to remember that carers also need to take time out to care for themselves so they can continue to provide the best care for others.
