A big thank you and congratulations to Jess and friends who held an Australia Day Lemonade and Cookie Stall to raise funds for MND NSW. They raised over $900, what a great result!

We would like to invite all children attending our Walk to d'Feet MND events this year to bring along a drawing of the person they are walking in honour of. We will have a board available at each Walk to display the drawings. Come on kids get those crayons and pencils out and start drawing.

Thank you to the wonderful support provided by the Rotary Club of Narrandera from their Christmas Party which raised $3,200 for research. Special thanks go to Joy and Robert Norrie together with Beth and Greg McVicker who organised and catered the event. Robert said of the evening, "We had a great night even though it was very hot, 36 degrees, until late. We had 98 people seated on our lawn beside the Murrumbidgee River. A chandelier hung in the overhead gum tree and as night settled in we were entertained by some of the Riverina Men’s Choir."
