Eddie backs the new MND awareness campaign



“The film, through the form of dance, gives you a sense of the brutality
of motor neurone disease. It’s compelling with a clear message,
‘Don’t ignore the problem because there isn’t yet a solution'.
I want as many people as possible to watch and share it, even though
it’s a little uncomfortable, so that understanding of motor neurone disease
will be greater in the future. It has been gifted to the Motor Neurone Disease
Association, a charity which is close to my heart, and it portrays with huge
emotion, the gradual loss of control and the tragic nature of stolen dreams.”
- Eddie Redmayne


Eddie is a patron to the MND Association, he supports the charity
since he played Stephen Hawking in The Theory of Everything.
Recently he  attended the first-ever online meeting of the
All-Party Parliamentary Group (APPG) on MND to discuss
the impact of COVID-19 on the MND community.
