NHS Continuing Healthcare (CHC) is a complex subject, one that is often misunderstood, but can be hugely important for those living with motor neurone disease (MND).

Dave Setters, who is living with MND, and Marian Ward, who lost her husband to MND, join us for a frank discussion about their personal experience navigating the system, and share some top tips for those going through the NHS CHC assessment process.
