Your Support in Action: Meet Annie from FlexEquip

Thanks to your generosity in supporting our 2025 Christmas Appeal, FlexEquip has grown — and with it, our ability to support people living with MND when they need it most.

We’re delighted to introduce Annie Currie, the newest member of our FlexEquip team — a role made possible directly through your support.

Annie has joined us as FlexEquip Support Officer, assisting in cleaning and maintaining equipment and more.

"Having worked in the disability sector for many years, I understand the trauma families face when navigating a diagnosis, and know what support is required. This is especially prevalent with MND, given the nature of the disease," Annie said.

"I believe my role is an important part of providing dignity and respect to both clients and their families. I can already see that I am working with a compassionate and collaborative team, and this aligns perfectly with my personal values and my commitment to the not-for-profit sector."

From Appeal to Action

In the lead‑up to Christmas, we shared why FlexEquip needed one more pair of hands.

Demand for equipment was growing. Turnaround times were under pressure. Families needed faster responses, clearer communication, and reassurance that help was on the way — often urgently.

You responded.

Because of your generosity, we were able to recruit Annie and strengthen the FlexEquip team — turning your donations into immediate, practical impact.

What Annie’s Role Means for Families

Annie has joined FlexEquip at a crucial time, helping ensure people living with MND can access the equipment they need quickly, safely, and with dignity.

Her role is already making a difference by:

  • Supporting faster delivery and turnaround of vital equipment
  • Improving communication with families and health professionals
  • Helping the team respond more effectively to urgent requests
  • Freeing up capacity to plan, problem‑solve, and improve services

Every hoist, walker, or communication aid that leaves FlexEquip represents independence, comfort, and peace of mind — and Annie is now part of making that happen every day.

A Real Impact You Made Possible

FlexEquip is more than a service — it’s often a lifeline.

By funding this role, you’ve helped ensure our team can continue to say “yes” to requests for support, even as demand continues to grow. You’ve helped reduce waits, ease stress for families, and ensure people living with MND receive the right equipment at the right time.

Thank You for Empowering Tomorrow

Your Christmas Appeal support didn’t just fund a position — it strengthened a service that people rely on during some of the most challenging moments of their lives.

From all of us — and especially from Annie and the FlexEquip team — thank you for helping turn generosity into action.

With your continued support, we can keep building services that deliver hope, dignity, and practical help where it’s needed most.
