Every year, our incredible #TeamOrange runners take on the Great North Run in support of the 110,000 children and adults in the UK living with a muscle-wasting condition.

We cannot wait to turn the Tyne orange on Sunday 10 September 2023. It's going to be special and the support of #TeamOrange is needed more than ever.

Over 110,000 young children and adults live with a muscle-wasting condition in the UK today. There's no cure, it limits and, in many cases, shortens lives. Muscular Dystrophy UK funds pioneering research into treatments and cures to improve lives today and transform those of future generations. We offer information, advice and support to help people live well with a muscle-wasting or associated condition. And were driving change to see better care so that people can stay active, independent and connected.
