About YAMND
York and District against Motor Neurone Disease is an independent charity (# 1000356) founded in 1989 to provide practical help for MND patients and their families.We offer care and support for victims and their families and also provide information about this devastating illness.
We operate within a twenty mile radius of York Hospital and employ a part time nurse to help the group provide an outstanding level of care for patients in the area.
All other members of the group volunteer their services to keep expenses to a minimum and new members are always sought.
