Increase funding for MND research

Closed 1,539 signatures

What the petition asks

Many people are being diagnosed with MND. More Government funding for research is needed.
We believe that there are several organisations ready to go to trial with new drugs but lack the funding to do so, and that the Government has not put in sufficient funding for research of MND.
The suffering a person with MND has to go through is unimaginable. Causing unbearable pain for them and their family caring for a loved one. The Government must do more to help.
