Story

CJD is a horrid disease. It doesn’t only affect the person suffering from this horrid disease but it leaves families devastated in the wake. 

CJD takes important people - We need a cure. As soon as possible. 

One month being vegan.

Support us to find a cure for Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD). There is currently no cure but every day scientists and doctors are getting closer to finding a treatment. We aim to raise funds to support the use of an antibody drug developed for the treatment of patients with CJD. The first patient was treated at UCLH in October 2018.
