Many of you out there are fighting fit!
For those of you who know me know I’m always fighting off the fat so have signed up to the the Great North Run on September 10th on aid of the charity Action Duchenne.
I’d be grateful to anyone who would be kind enough to donate and support the life-changing work of UK charity, Action Duchenne.
No donation is too small…..any amount is greatly appreciated.
Your donation will help fund projects which will empower young people living with the rare muscle-wasting condition, Duchenne muscular dystrophy.
Duchenne muscular dystrophy is a rare genetic condition caused by mutations in the dystrophin gene, which makes muscles more susceptible to damage and leads to muscle wasting over time. People living with Duchenne muscular dystrophy experience progressive muscle weakness and typically need to use a powered wheelchair from their early teens. The heart and breathing muscles are eventually affected and most will require a ventilator in their twenties; life expectancy is around 30 years but has improved with palliative care developments.
There is no cure…..yet but with your help this could hopefully change in the near future
Thank you in advance for your donation to help power Action Duchenne's vital work.
