LEARN-Dingwall

MND Scotland is bringing our Lived Experience and Researcher events to Highlands this year! 

Last year, we invited people affected by MND and MND researchers to come together to share their experiences, knowledge, and research in four cities across the country.  

This year MND Scotland has been working with Ross County FC, and together, we welcome our MND community in the Highlands to the Global Energy Stadium!  

The Cub has kindly provided the Hamilton Suite for us to host what will be the final event of our 2025 LEARN event calendar. 

On the day, you can expect presentations from three local MND researchers with time for discussions in-between, and, of course, coffee, tea and biscuits. 

LEARN events are free to attend. We would greatly appreciate it if you could register your interest in attending via the registration form below (so we can make sure we order enough refreshments for everyone!). Full information about the event and venue can be found below. 

We look forward to seeing you there.
