Emma VULIN (Pakenham) (15:15): I want to thank everyone who turned out for the Walk to Support MND in Pakenham, particularly those supporting me and my family. There are many of you here today that made the journey with me, and I am truly humbled. A special shout-out to Sonya Boloski and her family, who successfully organised her fifth MND walk in honour of her late father and brother. Sonya and her family are tireless supporters, and they have helped fund much-needed equipment, like speech machines and scooters, to enhance the lives of so many with MND at no cost. This allows those suffering and their families to concentrate on making memories and not to worry about finding the funds to purchase these expensive but essential items. Thank you, Sonia and family, for your big hearts and for everything that you do.
