According to XXX, neuromuscular conditions affect over 60,000 people in Ireland. People with these conditions often require support with mobility, independence, and health. MDI can provide this support, but we cannot do it alone.
More than 95% of neuromuscular conditions currently have no cure, meaning people require lifelong support, medical care, and assistive devices. Please support MDI to allow us to provide services and support to those who need it in Ireland.
1 in 3,500 boys worldwide is born with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD). Families are fighting for better treatments and more advocacy to support their children to have a better life. MDI supports these families, and you can help us ensure this support is accessible to every family who needs it.
Families with children with neuromuscular conditions can spend an average of €30,000 per year on treatments, home adaptations, and mobility aids—costs that many cannot afford without additional support. Our Bursary programmes allow people to access funding to cover some of these costs. Please donate to one of our funds today.
People with neuromuscular conditions cannot wait. There is an urgent need for research and the development of improved treatments. Please support MDI in funding this research and advocating for these treatments on behalf of individuals and families nationwide who are fighting for what they need.
According to XXX, fewer than 1 in 10 neuromuscular conditions have approved treatments, making your donation critical for developing research into these treatments and potential cures. We can do it together.
Many people with neuromuscular conditions may require a wheelchair, adaptive technology, or personal care assistance as their condition progresses. Support us today to help people access the support they need for these essential needs.
Studies show that over 50% of individuals with neuromuscular conditions experience anxiety or depression. MDI works with individuals to access the support they need to access counselling, peer connection and mental health-focused programmes to ensure people do not feel alone in facing the challenges that come with a neuromuscular condition. Please support us today.
