We have one clear aim: to End Duchenne

Story

So here we are 5 years down the line with still no cure for our amazing boy Louis.

 Our hero our rock 💙

Will we give up? Never!!!! 

Life has never been the same since the day we walked into Alderhey 5 years ago and got told that our son had the most severe muscle wasting condition in a child. That day will haunt us for the rest of our lives.

We basically got told to go home and just enjoy him for the limited time he had left. For those who know me well, will know that I wouldn't ever just sit back and let this happen to Louis, So here I am 5 years later still fighting for a cure for my beautiful boy the boy who stole our hearts ❤

Every penny raised will go towards clinical research to be able to find a cure for Louis and all the other boys who are dealing with this awful disease on a daily basis.

Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a devastating muscle-wasting disease. It is the most common and severe form of muscular dystrophy. Diagnosed in childhood, it mainly affects boys. Started by families affected by the disease, Duchenne UK is the leading DMD charity in the UK: connecting the best researchers with industry, the NHS and families to advance and accelerate every stage of drug development. Together, we will end Duchenne
