Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD) is the most common fatal genetic disorder to affect children. They cannot produce dystrophin, a protein necessary for muscle survival. As a result, every skeletal muscle in the body deteriorates. The mission of the duchenne children’s trust is quite simply to raise money for global research with an aim to finding a cure for the hundreds of thousands of children who suffer from DMD.

All money raised by Team Banco will go to the Duchenne Children’s Trust and will be matched by Santander.
