Story

Thank you for considering sponsoring the Blinds 2go-TUISS sponsored 300km ride from London to Paris, I’m about to in support of Duchenne UK 🙏

I’m aiming to complete over 700km training in preparation for doing the full 300km in 24 hours!

I also wanted to let you know about what your sponsorship helps achieve for hundreds of sufferers and their families.

Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD) is a cruel and currently uncurable disease slowly crippling the body in young boys affected.

It is usually fatal before the boys reach adulthood and is Europe's biggest genetic killer of boys.

Duchenne UK works on cutting edge research and is directly funding the research that matters.

The impact on funding research into this disease is that sufferers and families now have hope, with the best scientists now able to investigate potential cures and treatments. From a standing start 10 years ago, the progress has already been profound:

-> £27m invested in research, support and care

-> 34 clinicians funded across the UK

-> 500+ boys on clinical trials and on innovative treatments

-> 650+ families receiving support and guidance

Once again, thanks for your support, it’s very much appreciated.
