Branch Support Meetings
The branch organises regular events throughout the year to support people living with MND, their families and carers. Our aim is to provide an opportunity for people to drop in for a chat and meet other families affected by MND, along with branch volunteers and members of the MND clinical team.
Working in partnership with the MND team at LOROS, we hold monthly meetings for the MND Support Group at LOROS on clinic days.
(2026 dates :- June 2; July 14; Aug. 11; Sept. 8; Oct.6; Nov.3; Dec.1.)
We also hold regular Family and Friends meetings at the Heathley Park, Groby Road, Leicester especially for MND carers and family members. Next meetings 2pm – 4pm June 24 / August 26
People living in Leicestershire and Rutland are also invited to join in the Rutland Drop-In informal support group on the 4th Tuesday of the month from 2pm to 4pm at the Old Buttercross, Panniers Way, Oakham, LE15 7US.
