About this event

This one-hour online talk will provide an overview of motor neurone disease (MND), local MND services and research. We will explore what it means to live well with MND.

As part of Disability History Month, we will consider how participation in meaningful activities can be impacted by the disease and how this participation can be enhanced by healthcare support and services.

Join Rachel Thomson, Sussex MND Care & Research Network Coordinator, and Fiona Eldridge, MND Specialist practitioner, Sussex Community NHS Foundation Trust, for this online event, hosted by Brighton and Sussex Medical School (BSMS) for Disability History Month.

The talk will be chaired by Bobbie Farsides,  Professor of Clinical and Biomedical Ethics at BSMS, with the opportunity for Q&As after the discussion.
