Annual Motor Neurone Disease Fundraising ‘Walk To D-Feet MND’ Toowoomba takes place on Sunday 20 March 2016 at 10am.

Walk To D-Feet MND is an annual fundraising event aimed at raising awareness and funds to support people living with Motor Neurone Disease and the research to find a cure.  It is a 4km (approx) walk around Queens Park, Toowoomba followed by a sausage sizzle and entertainment by a local band.

MND is the term used for the rapidly progressive, terminal neurological disease that results in the progressive loss of a person’s use of limbs and ability to swallow and breathe while, in many cases, their mind and senses remain intact.  There is no known cure and no effective treatment.  MND does not discriminate – it can affect anyone at any time.

Donna Tunbridge from Motor Neurone Disease of Queensland said that the walk attracts a wide range of people all hoping to achieve the same objective to create a world free from the impact of MND.

“The’ Walk To D-Feet MND’ is not merely about raising awareness and funds to support people with MND and research to find a cure, it is about saying we are not giving up on our loved ones.”
