The Muscular Dystrophy Campaign is the only UK charity focusing on all muscular dystrophies and allied disorders.
Muscular Dystrophy is the gradual and relentless wasting and weakening of muscles. It affects babies, young people and adults of any race and background. More than 60,000 people in the UK have muscle disease or a related muscular dystrophy and 300,000 people are indirectly affected as relatives, carers and friends. The condition is often inherited but can occur out of the blue, even where there is no history of muscular dystrophy in the family. There are no cures or treatments which prevent the breakdown of muscle, but increased knowledge has improved the quality of people’s lives and – in many cases – length of life.
The Muscular Dystrophy Campaign is the only UK charity focusing on all muscle disease. It has pioneered the search for a cure for nearly 50 years, and are dedicated to improving the lives of all people affected by muscle disease. We rely almost entirely on voluntary donations to support our vital work.
Wessex Heartbeat was established in 1992 and thanks to the generosity of many individuals and organisations over the years, we have been able to make a real difference to the care of the patients of the Wessex Cardiac Centre (WCC) in Southampton. Now a Centre of Excellence, the WCC treats over 20,000 patients annually and around 1000 babies and children born with congenital heart defects. Cardiovascular disease causes nearly 40% of all deaths annually in the UK. This sadly means that at some time, most of us will be affected by this disease whether it is ourselves, our loved ones or our colleagues. Our Mission is to ensure that everyone affected by heart conditions receives the best possible support
