Motor Neurone Disease (MND) is a rare and incurable neurological disease. I chose to do my final year radio documentary project on MND and how it is affecting a current sufferer, Jay Naidoo. 
My aim for creating this documentary is to raise awareness about MND and how it affects a person and their family. I too only heard of MND when my own mother was diagnosed with the illness. 
I hope that by listening to this documentary you will gain an understanding of MND and maybe tell one or two others about it because there are currently over 250 people in Ireland with MND and that number is growing.

MND - Fighting the Unknown

A brief package on the 'Mind Our Men' campaign launch by Pieta House in The Little Museum, Stephen's Green, Dublin on March 26 2013.
Kathryn Thomas, CEO of Pieta House Joan Freeman and a member Mungret St.Paul's GAA in Limerick explain why the campaign is of vital importance - to help fight male suicide in Ireland.
Music used was played and recorded live at the event conclusion.
