Beth’s heart project helps young children in NZ

New Books For Kids

Beth Watson was strongly committed to supporting those impacted by MND, and was involved with MND NZ for many years as president, part of the council, and as life member.

Recognising the importance of helping young children in understanding what may lie ahead when their loved ones are diagnosed with MND, Beth set out to bring “What Did You Learn Today?” to New Zealand, a children’s book produced in America to help children understand MND.

Beth sadly passed away in June, but this beautiful heart project was brought to fruition with the help of Hope Loves Company, an American not for profit organisation focused on supporting children with a connection with MND.

We now have copies of this book available, free of charge to anyone who needs them. Please request one from your Support Advisor or from MND NZ directly.
