It was a great start this month for motor neurone disease awareness with #MND once again featuring on #BBCBreakfast. Let's keep the momentum going. Please share our infographic and make sure at least one more person knows more about this disease 🧡 thank you for your support!

Last April 1 I did a reverse triathlon and raised nearly £9k for @mndassoc I’m doing an egg and spoon race on 1 April 21 and a Marathon of mini marathons, 26 steps with my wheely Walker, on 26 days in April. To learn more, or to sponsor me, go to andy-laird-fightback.muchloved.com/fundraising/ev…

I've asked my MP to urge @hmtreasury @SteveBarclay to approve changes proposed by the @DWP to ensure that terminally ill people aren't forgotten in the Budget on 3 March. ⏰We have 2 weeks to get as many MPs to write as possible. Ask yours👇🏾bit.ly/3ccOIVW #Scrap6Months

@mndcampaigns @DisabilityGovUK I tried but when I touch any square nothing happens, No tick or cross appears in the box. Even after loading it twice.

Heartbreaking that 3,000 more people in the UK have received the shattering diagnosis of #MND in 18 months. It is an evil killer. Government must #Scrap6Months @DWP and provide overdue research funds. Not incurable - just underfunded. #United2EndMND @alexwardfund @AmmarAlChalabi

18 months ago @DWP promised to review the benefits system for terminally ill people. Yet the findings still haven't been published. Since then, 3,000 more people have been diagnosed w/#MND & need fast access to benefits. When will the Gov't publish the review? ⏰#Scrap6Months

Well done @mrdanwalker and @louiseminchin for this morning‘s focus on Voice banking. When diagnosed with MND 18 months ago I didn’t have a clue about MND. That wouldn’t be so today That’s all down to what #BBCBreakfast have done since then. Thank you so much.

All being well the BBC1 breakfast show tomorrow will feature the MND story, which will include a conversation with me, should be broadcast just after 9 am. Many thanks for all the supportive comments I received yesterday, I’ll carry them over to tomorrow.@mndassoc

Sadly the BBC have dropped the story I was to be involved in from this morning‘s breakfast programme. They are now hoping to run it in tomorrow’s show. @mndassoc

The @mndassoc Have nominated me to speak tomorrow on BBC 1’s breakfast show at around 8.45am in a feature they’re doing about having a voice and the impact of MND on the possibility of losing it.

Happy New Year everyone! Can you resolve to do something this year to raise some money for @mndassoc.? In a New Year we need new ideas for new virtual events which can be achieved simply. My virtual triathlon last year was hatched early in the new year. Get thinking and be bold!

It’s MNDA a pyjama day today; I’ve got mine on have you? The @mndassoc need every penny so every £5 donation really makes a difference. Just text MNDPJDAY to 70095.
