Functional Neurological Disorders Event

Open to all patients registered with a Lincolnshire GP

Every year on March 25th, the UK marks Functional Neurological Disease (FND) Awareness Day. To mark this, people with a diagnosis of FND and organisations providing support to patients registered with a Lincolnshire GP are hosting a free FND community learning event, to further raise awareness and provide education on this condition.

This event is designed to bring together individuals living with FND, their carers, NHS and Local Authority workers, and voluntary sector organisations to share information and learn from each other. Although this being held in South Lincs it is very much open to all areas of Lincolnshire.

FND is a brain network disorder that encompasses a diverse range of neurological symptoms including limb weakness, paralysis, seizures, walking difficulties, spasms, twitching, sensory issues and more. It can affect people of any age and for many people the symptoms are severe and disabling and can often be life changing.
