The charity help fund an annual event that connects DYRK1A individuals and their families with interested professionals. In addition to our families gaining more of an understanding around the medical aspects, traits, latest research and therapies from the specialist speakers who will attend and present during the event we are also able to use the conference to establish and provide knowledge to them and help learn about the challenges our DYRK1a children and young people have in life. Securing funding helps ensure that as many families as possible are able to benefit from this event by being able to pay for the conference facilities during the meet up for all the speakers and the families attending. This will help encourage attendance of families who would otherwise not feel able to financially.

Story

Having a child with a rare chromosome disorder can be isolating and confusing. Having a community you can share information with and that understand is hugely beneficial. This meet up enables families to spend time together along with hearing from specialist speakers that can give more understanding regarding some of the medical aspects involved. The charity being able to assist with funding the event helps ensure that as many families as possible are able to benefit from this experience. It will cost the charity around £5000 to hold this event and we hope to be able to continue holding an event each year giving families more possibilities to meet each other.
