FND and Me

FND and Me

By Matthew Newsham

This is a podcast looking at everyday aspects of people who live with Functional Neurological Disorder. There is not much information out there about this condition, with further cuts and funding issues this disorder is not something which is widely known about. Here we just try and spread the word about FND, and try and help people who might just need that extra little bit of extra information.
