Your generosity supports life-changing programs that create life-changing moments.
When Sonya was first told her newborn daughter, Bailey, had been born with a neuromuscular condition, she didn’t think of the vast amounts of support their family would require. After spending the past fourteen years as part of the MDNSW community – attending programs and meeting other people living with neuromuscular conditions - Sonya and Bailey have found their lives filled with laughter, education and most importantly, support.
Your donation will help MDNSW to continue to offer life-changing programs to create life-changing moments and ensure that no one has to face their journey alone. Thank you for considering a gift to MDNSW. Together, we can help children and their families living with neuromuscular conditions, to experience and learn skills that empower them, to live the life that they choose.

Help every child can participate in camp activities and recieves the care they need to enjoy a week away with their peers.
Respite & Rejuvination
Providing a relaxing experience is vital to ensuring our mothers return home feeling supported, relaxed and refreshed to continue caring for their child.

"I have gained knowledge on numerous topics, these mums have a vast amount they are willing to share."

At camp "children like Bailey can be with peers where they don’t feel different. It’s a fully inclusive environment for a week each year… she comes home beaming with enthusiasm.”
- Sonya, Bailey's Mum
"Bailey's life revolves around therapies; physiotherapy & hydrotherapy, to keep her as healthy as can be... as time went by, I realised our family needed support, guidance and understanding from like-minded individuals. So, I reached out to join MDNSW.”
- Sonya, Bailey's Mum
