My Name'5 Doddie supports partnership to provide specialist services for people with MND

We have joined forces with The Matt Hampson Foundation to form a partnership to provide services for those diagnosed with MND.

From its Get Busy Living Centre headquarters at Burrough-on-the-Hill in Leicestershire, the Matt Hampson Foundation provides specialist physiotherapy, personal training and wellbeing support for beneficiaries who have experienced life-changing injury through sport, helping them back into sport, work or education and into adjusting to a new life after injury.

Now, we have come together with The Matt Hampson Foundation to share expertise and facilities at the Get Busy Living Centre to anyone active in sporting activity who has had diagnosis with MND.

Ed Slater said: “Matt’s and Doddie’s organisations are both very close to my heart and I hope it gives everyone involved a huge amount of strength knowing that they have such good people behind them following this link between My Name’5 Doddie and the Matt Hampson Foundation.”

Paul Thompson, our Director of Fundraising, said: "The Matt Hampson Foundation shares many of the same positive values as My Name'5 Doddie Foundation and the vital work that they do makes us proud to support this collaboration.

"MND is a devastating diagnosis, but for people living with the disease to be able to access world-class facilities at the Get Busy Living Centre will play an important role in enabling them to live as fulfilled a life as possible".
