In the first of our podcast series, our host Clare Runacres talks to Emily Crossley and Alex Johnson about why they co-founded the charity - Duchenne UK. They discuss their sons DMD diagnosis and the work the charity is doing to find treatments for Duchenne muscular dystrophy.
Duchenne UK is a highly focused, ambitious and lean charity with a clear vision: to fund and accelerate treatments and a cure for Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy.
Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD) is a devastating muscle wasting disease and is the most common genetic killer of children worldwide. There is no treatment or cure.
Children will be totally paralysed by their teens and won’t live beyond their 20s...But thanks to recent breakthroughs, we believe we can save them.
