My Name'5 Doddie Foundation

Motor neuron disease (MND) is brutal and has no cure.  

Every day people are diagnosed with a disease that can move fast. Families live with uncertainty and fear, people lose their ability to walk, talk, eat and breathe.  

For 98% of people living with the disease, there have been no new treatment options for decades. This isn’t good enough. 

We are My Name’5 Doddie Foundation. Founded by Doddie Weir, we have a clear vision: a world free of MND. We fund the smartest, most efficient MND research. We back bold ideas and bring together the best minds from across the globe.  

Our goal is simple: faster routes to effective treatments. Because when you’re living with MND, time matters. This is not a competition, but it is a race.   

Our community makes it all possible. Together we’ve filled stadiums, baked, walked, ran, and hiked. We’ve done it dressed in a tartan as bold as our approach, and echoing Doddie’s message: “MND isn’t incurable, it’s just underfunded.”
