Article One MARIST PREPARATORY SCHOOL SUPPORT MOVEMENT DISORDERS CHARITY The Marist Preparatory School has handed a cheque for £193.33 to Mr Andy Meaney, from the Research Institute for Movement Disorders Trust (RIMD). Rather than sending each other Christmas cards in December, pupils and staff collected money to give to a charity. Mrs Julie Edwards, who is a mother at the school, benefitted from the work carried out by the Research Institute for Movement Disorders and suggested the Trust as a very worthy recipient of the money. A special Assembly was held and Mr Meaney spoke to pupils and staff about the work the RIMD does. The RIMD Trust provides funding for the research and development of rehabilitation programmes to improve the functionality, mobility and quality of life of children and adults with neurological disorders. The Trust also provides specialist rehabilitation equipment and facilities, and funding for the education and training clinical rehabilitation practitioners. Andy Meaney is the Head of the Clinical Exercise and Rehabilitation (CLEAR) Unit at Oxford Brookes University. "The RIMD buys equipment and provides treatment to children and adults with a wide range of movement disorders and physical disabilities. We are a small but very active charity. We have no overheads, no paid members of staff and run no expensive advertising campaigns. All the money we receive goes towards the provision of treatment, equipment and research. Every penny counts and every pound makes a difference to somebody with a physical disability. That is why the Trustees are delighted that the Marist Preparatory School chose us to receive the proceeds from their Christmas charity collection" Mr Meaney said.
