Story

Becker muscular dystrophy is a muscle-wasting condition, first described in 1956, which usually affects only males. It causes muscles to weaken and waste over time, leading to increasing and often severe disability.

In some cases, Becker muscular dystrophy can lead to life-threatening health problems, as heart and breathing muscles weaken. It is closely related to Duchenne muscular dystrophy, although is generally not as severe.

Your support really means the world to us and it takes us a step closer to helping and supporting Corben, other children and adults with this cruel disease.

From the bottoms of our hearts… THANK YOU!

Rachel, Rob, Harrison and Corben xx

Net proceeds from fundraising will be split 80/20% between MDUK's research into Becker muscular dystrophy and help support Corben with future welfare needs
