Merchandise with meaning: new ways to support MND Action Month
Awareness, Fundraising
14 June 2025

This MND Action Month, we’re proud to share some beautiful new additions to the MND NZ merchandise range — created to raise awareness, honour loved ones, and support the vital work we do alongside people living with motor neurone disease and their whānau.
Held every June, MND Action Month is a time to raise awareness, share stories, and take action for those affected by motor neurone disease.
From winter warmers to one-of-a-kind keepsakes, every item in the store carries meaning — and every purchase helps fund personal support, advocacy, and research.
What’s in the range?
Cosy MND socks and beanies
Our royal blue beanies and matching socks are designed to keep you warm this winter — and help spark kōrero wherever you go. Simple, practical, and full of heart, they’re ideal for events, volunteers, or everyday wear.
Making Time Count tee
This bold, royal blue T-shirt is designed to show your support loud and clear. Comfortable, easy to wear, and a great way to start conversations during Action Month and beyond.
Limited-edition cuppa set
The Cuppa Tea for MND ceramic set was handcrafted by JMT Ceramics — a mother and daughter duo who created the piece in tribute to a beloved family member affected by MND. It’s a beautiful way to honour someone you love or support a conversation that matters.
The blue cornflower
Each item features the international symbol for MND — the blue cornflower. Resilient in all conditions, this striking flower reflects the quiet strength of those who live with the disease. Wearing it, sharing it, or gifting it becomes a small but powerful act of solidarity.
Why it matters
All profits from our merchandise go directly to Motor Neurone Disease NZ, supporting the work we do every day to make time count — from one-on-one support services to national advocacy and research.
This store isn’t just about fundraising. It’s about storytelling. It’s about visibility. It’s about reminding people that no one has to face MND alone.
Be part of it
Whether you’re tipping a bucket, pouring a brew, or simply looking for a meaningful way to get involved — we’d love you to explore the collection.
