You’re invited to an evening of connection and community

Motor Neurone Disease New Zealand (MND NZ) and Emirates Team New Zealand (ETNZ) are hosting a special gathering to celebrate the people, partnerships, and community that strengthen support for those affected by motor neurone disease (MND).

We invite you to join us beneath Emirates Team New Zealand's AC75Taihoro for a special evening celebrating the people, partnerships and connections that strengthen support for those affected by motor neurone disease. This relaxed gathering brings together people living with MND and their family/whānau, health professionals, researchers, supporters, donors and advocates for a rare opportunity to connect across the MND community. The evening will include:

-Updates from MND NZ and ETNZ

-A personal story from a member of the MND community

-An opportunity to explore Taihoro and hear from the ETNZ crew

-Drinks and canapés overlooking the Waitematā

-Plenty of time to connect, share experiences, and build new relationships

Whether you're living with MND, supporting a loved one, contributing to research, delivering care, advocating for change, or supporting our work, we'd love to welcome you.

Together, we'll celebrate the connections that make a difference every day and the collective impact we can achieve when our community comes together.
