The George Barton Trust sponsors or undertakes research, makes grants to organisations and to individuals.

The George Barton Trust is a small UK charity based in Lancashire that focuses on motor neurone disease (MND) — a serious neurological condition affecting the nerves that control movement. The trust raises funds to support research into MND, including experimental studies and trials aimed at understanding the disease better and improving treatment options. It also makes grants to individuals and organisations working in this field.

In short: it’s a charity dedicated to advancing knowledge, research and support around motor neurone disease to help find better treatments and outcomes.
