Your host

Matthew Gerdes-Hansen

With Emma Gerdes-Hansen

I'm Matthew. I started FND Connect after watching two people I love, Emma, and my stepdaughter, live with FND with almost nowhere practical to turn. I don't have FND myself. I live alongside it every day, and I wanted a local room where people, and the people who love them, can sit down without having to explain themselves first.

Later dates

If symptoms are new, sudden, severe, or unlike your usual FND, use 999 or NHS 111. This group is peer support, not a clinic.
