FND Hope is a charitable organization promoting awareness and support for individuals and carers affected by Functional Neurological Disorder.

Functional Neurological Disorder

• FND is due to a problem with the functioning of the nervous system and thought to be the result of the brain’s inability to send and receive signals properly, rather than disease.
• FND is the second most common reason for a neurological outpatient visit after headache/migraine.
• FND is more common than multiple sclerosis.
• FND symptoms are real
• FND can cause impairment in quality of life that is similar to other neurological conditions such as Parkinson’s disease or Epilepsy.
