Oxfordshire Branch

Welcome to the Oxfordshire Branch

The branch is run entirely by volunteers and aims to provide the best possible support to local people with MND, their carers and their families. There are regular support group meetings for local people living with MND, friends and family - held in North and South Oxfordshire (alternate months). Please check our planned meetings below for the next dates. Fundraising locally is a very important aspect for our branch and helps us provide local support, contribute to research commissioned by the MND Association and promote awareness of the disease.
