Ataxia ia a type of genetic neurological condition that affects balance, speech and co-ordination. Ataxia is progressive, meaning it gets worse with time, until some people become entirely dependant on others for all of their needs. Over 10,000 people in the UK have some form of Ataxia and currently there is no cure. In the last 5 years, the charity has spent over £3 million on research into possible treatments and cures for Ataxia.
