I have just been diagnosed with motor neurone disease, or ALS. Does anyone have experience with this? I can only find very old threads. xA

I'm sorry to hear this Anne Mary. Have you received any support or guidance about where to get information from your consultant?

Well the NHS is never fast 🙁 but they promised me some info like that. Meanwhile I found sites and forums on the computer but most of it is rather American.

I'm in Scotland, so probably not much use, but our local support group shows this link for England:

Thank you Jabba, I have just now discovered that site! So much to do at this stage and everything takes so long. Just for a blue badge application "the council will make a decision within 12 weeks" .....
