We present a new catalogue of 1336 bright (K < 9), low proper motion, M dwarfs from the PPMXL catalogue. These M dwarfs cover the entire sky but the galactic plane was excluded to avoid crowding and reddened stars. Spectra taken of a random sample of the targets and spectral estimations made using colours of the sample show a spectral range K8-M5.
