Welcome to our 100th FND podcast episode with Detty!  A while back Ladyjane from Instagram posed a question to the FND podcast and opened a discussion on her Instagram about Nead and helmets. Curious to find out more I asked why ask the question and asked the team about their thoughts. Here are our responses and I wonder what you guys think.

FND Dimensions aims to develop a network of ‘peer support groups’ across the UK either in face to face meetings or online via methods such as Skype. By bringing people together on a regular basis, this helps alleviate the isolation that many FND patients feel. It also gives  opportunity  for others to open up dialog and to talk to others in a similar position about the day to day challenges, issues or concerns with one another.
