Scottish Huntington's Association supports families impacted by Huntington’s disease (HD). 800 people in Scotland have HD with a further 3200 at risk of developing it in the future. HD impacts the ability to walk, talk and swallow, can cause mental illness and affects mood, memory and mobility.

Story

With a recent upswing in attention for the HD community, the time has come for the spotlight to firmly shine on HD families and for the stigma and isolation to end.

Join us in George Square Glasgow on Sunday 12 June, or get the dance started early by taking part virtually during Huntington's disease awareness month in May.

Dance 100 is a 100 song sponsored Dance challenge, the brainchild of Gillian McNab, a fabulous woman, nurse and mum who has the gene that causes Huntington's disease. Gillian is determined to live positively and Dance 100 is the latest in a long line of incredible fundraising events for the HD community in Scotland!

Gillian said, "I hope Dance 100 brings people together to dance joyfully and with purpose. Id love to see an army of dancers out there, spreading the word about Huntington's disease and how SHA helps families."

We've invited our celebrity friends, as well as our friends in the press to join us on the day. Our dancers will be going for over 5 hours all in service to the HD Community.
