The NeuroMuscular Centre

The NeuroMuscular Centre, more often known as the NMC, is a charity that was established in 1990 by Sarah Kellyand Kate Fox, who have both now retired. Their legacy is a very special warm and welcoming place that is full of fun and provides unique opportunities for work, training and treatment for adults with the vast range of conditions known collectively as muscular dystrophy.

The NMC is part of the Muscular Dystrophy Campaign.

Physiotherapy at the NMC

A full range of specialist physiotherapy and hydrotherapy is offered free. Its highly professional and experienced team of physios have vast knowledge of muscular dystrophy. Just get a referral from your GP or consultant and then you’ll be able to visit the NMC for a full free assessment. A physiotherapy programme will then be devised that’s right for you.

NMC Design

NMC Design is a Graphic Design and Print company operating in the
commercial arena. The company is run by and employs people with muscular dystrophy. Their work is highly original and of high quality but very competitive on price too. Many of the publications produced by the Muscular Dystrophy Campaign are produced by NMC Design.

NMC Training

NMC Training is a part of NMC Design, and trainees undertake fully accredited Graphic Design courses for students aged 16 and over. Trainees get the chance to go on and gain employment in NMC Design once they’ve successfully completed the training.

NMC Transport

NMC Transport is provided free for all our employees with muscular dystrophy, who want it, to and from work each day. This means the NMC minibuses are very busy everyday – they are crucial to the running of the centre.

Location of the NMC

The centre is based in Winsford in Cheshire. It’s easily accessible from the M6 motorway and many people regularly travel to the centre from all corners of the North West and North Wales, as well as the Midlands and even the North East.
