Every penny changes lives

David Sweeney

“MND Scotland is a beacon of light for families devastated by a diagnosis of MND. I support the charity because as a family we are eternally grateful for the assistance we received over the years that our mum Christine had MND. Whether it was advice on benefit entitlement, equipment loan, grants for holidays, family breaks at the MND lodge, counselling for the whole family, a superb advocacy service…there really is too much to list.

“At each stage of our journey, there was friendly advice, and thoughtful and sensitive support. If our small contribution can allow this wonderful charity to continue to flourish, then it is very worthwhile.”

- David Sweeney

Glasgow Green 5k/10k/Half Marathon

Get up and running this Spring with a half marathon, 5 or 10k run through the scenic Glasgow Green.

Get Inspired

You don’t have to run a marathon or jump out of a plane to fight back against MND. There are tons of ideas to use the power of charity to bring friends, family, communities and colleagues together in a fun way – or to give back by taking on something solo.

Ice Bucket Challenge

It’s the global phenomenon that catapulted MND into the mainstream and raised millions of pounds to fight back against motor neuron disease. Why not revisit the classic challenge or see if you can put your own spin on the world-famous challenge? Ice bath anyone?

Sponsored Silence

Motor neuron disease robs people of so much, and for many speech is an issue. A popular sponsorship activity amongst the MND community is a sponsored silence to draw attention to this heart-breaking reality. Could you go 48 hours without saying a word?

Wee Cup of Tea for MND

Host a tea party and help raise money to fight back against MND. Add petit fours, homemade cakes or sandwiches… there are lots of ideas to make your tea or coffee morning come to life to raise funds for MND.

Bake it Up for MND

Could you be the next Prue Leith or Paul Hollywood? Get your friends and family together for a Great Big MND Bake Off challenge and see who can be the most creative pastry chef! Or why not organise a fun bake sale in your place of work, at your kids school or at a local club or group? Whatever you do, baking is a really simple (but delicious!) way to raise funds for MND Scotland. 

G&T for MND

One for the grown-ups! Let’s be honest… we all love a get together with friends and family and if there are cocktails (or mocktails) involved, all the better, right?
Host a get together, play some party games and raise a glass to fighting back against MND.
