MDA

Our organisation is a registered charity and we rely almost entirely on voluntary donations from the general public, trusts and other businesses/organisations to continue our work... We have three regional branches - Northern, Central, and the South Island - that are supported by the national office based in Auckland. MDANZ supports individuals, families and whānau by providing specialist information, practical resources, personalised support services, social networks, campaigns for public awareness and advocacy. And through our research trust, we work to improve care standards and facilitate access to potential treatments for neuromuscular conditions... The Muscular Dystrophy Association of New Zealand Inc. (MDANZ) began in the late 1950's as a support group for families affected by muscular dystrophy. Since then, MDANZ has broadened its scope to include many other neuromuscular conditions.

Also known as: MDANZ, Muscular Dystrophy Association
