Meet Our Team

Our Story
At the heart of FND – What Now? is a dedicated and multidisciplinary team that brings together lived experience, professional expertise, and a deep commitment to supporting individuals with Functional Neurological Disorder (FND) in South Africa (SA).
While we come from different backgrounds and bring unique strengths to the table, we're unites by a shared commitment to community, lifelong learning, and improving quality of life.
We’re not just a team - we’re a collective of individuals who care deeply, laugh easily, and believe that healing and hope grow stronger when they’re rooted in connection. Our leadership is made up of four core Directors, each guiding a vital area of our organisation.
