Story

Join the #TeamTSA Ride 100 team and raise vital funds of the Tuberous Sclerosis Assocation (TSA).

The TSA are the only UK charity dedicated to supporting people affected by Tuberous Sclerosis Complex (TSC). TSC is a genetic condition that can lead to growths in various organs of the body, but those most commonly affected are the brain, eyes, heart, kidney, skin and lungs. These growths may also be referred to as tumours but they are not cancerous. When they cause problems it is mainly because of their size and where they are in the body. TSC growths have different names depending on which organ they are found in.

The impact of TSC varies considerably, with some people being relatively mildly affected (they may not even know they have TSC) and others being more significantly affected. This impact may be evident in the early years, or not until adulthood.

An estimated 1 million people world-wide have TSC. Some will be diagnosed with TSC very early in life whilst others may not be diagnosed until later childhood, adolescence or adulthood.

About the charity

As the only UK charity focused on Tuberous Sclerosis Complex (TSC) we : • Improve the health/wellbeing of people living with TSC and their families/carers • Lead research into technologies and treatments to reduce TSC’s impact • Lead innovation into medical and social care service integration
