Story

Some of the CureDM trustees have come together to do a team challenge of the Dundee Kiltwalk, in aid of the charity. Everything we are able to achieve via CureDM is down to the generous donations and support we recieve, Thank you for helping us make a difference.

Not wanting to leave anyone out, Pete and Emma have decided to get the whole family involved!

Dregan, Xander and River will be doing the 'wee wanderer' (Dregan utilising his wheelchair) with Emma. This is the first proper challenge River has taken part in. It is 4.3miles, which is a lot for little legs! Apparently it will take around 1.5 hours, but I imagine there will be stops along the way....

Pete and Dinah are doing THE MIGHTY STRIDE as a sibling challenge, of 20 Miles!!! (around 7.5 hours of walking from St Andrews to Dundee!)

Please consider sponsoring us all fundraising will be used to help facilitate research into Myotonic Dystrophy.

Dregan lives with congenital myotonic dystrophy, a progressive degenerative, life limiting disease which currently has no cure, and treatments to support worsening symptoms only. Research into DM is vital, and as a charity we advocate for our UK community and raises awareness of DM around the world. We also support families and provide peer support/family opportunities and meet ups.

THANK YOU for your support.
