Daniel was diagnosed with collagen-related congenital muscular dystrophy at the age of three.

It is a very rare muscle wasting condition which already affects his life extensively, he cannot stand or walk and uses a wheelchair full-time. In the future he is likely to have trouble with spine curvature and breathing, particularly at night, as his muscles weaken.

There is currently no cure or treatment, which is very difficult for us to accept, but MDUK are working hard to change this.

As a family we have already been overwhelmed by friends and relatives completing marathons, challenges and various activities to raise money to help MDUK fund their research, we are so grateful as we can’t do it on our own.

To support our campaign please become one of our fundraisers through this page, or donate to one of the upcoming challenges. Thank you.
