Branch Association Visitors

Association Visitors (AVs) act as the main contact for people living with MND, this includes the person living with MND, their family and carer on behalf of the Association. They keep in regular contact offering confidential emotional support, and accurate information to enable people with MND to make informed choices.

We have a team of trained Association Visitor Volunteers (AVs) who can keep in regular contact, either by visiting at home or keeping in touch by telephone, text or email.

To enquire about being an AV to add to our brilliant local team, or to access support from our team if you are living with MND, please contact our ASC, Andrea.
