Kent County Council Signs The MND Charter

Just to let you all know, Kent County Council have agree to sign the MND Charter. Kent is the first County Council to sign as a whole.

This was achieved through writing letters, emails and meeting with local key decision makers. Thank you to those of you who sent the template letters to your councillors. We sent out over 60 in the end. The combined effort worked and has got people who make decisions about Adult Social Care, people on the Health and Wellbeing Board amongst others, talking about Motor Neurone Disease, where they weren’t before.
The physical signing of a Charter is going to happen on 18th June, so look out for the subsequent photos, tweets and press release.
More importantly once KCC have signed, the real work begins to embed the 5 Charter principles into their policies and documents.

Thank you again.
