Motor neurone disease
Belinda WILSON (Narre Warren North) (13:53): I recently had the chance to be involved in a cause that is very deeply personal to this side of the chamber: motor neurone disease, MND, a devastating illness that affects so many families across this state. I joined the MND walk in Pakenham, which was organised by my dear friend the member for Pakenham Emma Vulin. It was so great to see so many people come out not just to raise awareness but also to raise much-needed funds for MND Victoria. I was really proud to walk alongside so many of my colleagues, friends and community members, all united in the fight against this really shocking, terrible disease.
