About the organisation
The MND and Me Foundation’s Mission is To Care and To Cure. We fund research into an effective treatment or cure but until that day arrives, we fund care services for Queenslanders living with MND as well as their family and care support network.
The Foundation listens to the needs of people living with MND and we believe in securing their quality of life and maintaining their independence for as long as possible. We are keenly aware of the urgency of providing aid to our clients and we strive to provide the right solutions, at the right time, at no cost.
The Foundation strongly believes in filling holes and not duplicating services that are readily available and that is why we provide items that are not funded through My Aged Care for free to people over 65 or we provide items to be tested to people looking to access NDIS funding.
Through our Spark Neurocare Program we are able to access 87% of the Queensland population with face to face Support Coordination that does not discriminate on age as we provide the same to service to people over 65 who are not on NDIS support. This reach in regional Queensland allows us to better support people and their families and provide in home support where it is needed.
