We provide information and support families to improve the lives of affected children
Story
Our daughter Jemiah is 15 years old and was diagnosed when born with Wolf Hirshhorn Syndrome. This is a very rare condition which effects chromosome 4. (Also known as 4P minus) the trust have been a great support over the years since Jemiah was born and other families also have had the support and information needed at a time when most needed.
As this is a rare condition most doctors involved in the care of our children have no knowledge or information to help the child and families and this is a real struggle when all you want to do is help your child. The trust provide help and support when needed in many different ways. Where we live there are 3 other children with this condition so our consultant is very good but not everyone is so lucky and do struggle.
