Association Visitors

Association Visitors (AVs) support people affected by Motor Neurone Disease - both those with the disease and those close to them.  They offer free and confidential emotional support, and information about the Association and other services that helps people to make informed choices.  This helps to reduce the sense of isolation many people affected by the disease experience.

Association Visitors:

  • make and maintain contact by telephone, email or face-to-face with people living with MND

  • explain the support and services the Association and other local services can offer

  • enable people with MND to identify problems as they arise and explore how these might be managed

  • liaise with Health and Social Care Professionals.

If you would like to be put in contact with an Association Visitor please contact Gay Watson on 020 8352 2595 or by email at NL-MNDA@hotmail.com.

The North London Branch holds support meetings for people living with MND, their carers, family and friends.
