In honour of my nephew ‘Harvey’ whom has Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy - I'm taking part in Go Bright 2024 to support Muscular Dystrophy UK in raising funding for ground-breaking research and life-changing treatment for 110,000 children and adults in the UK living with muscle wasting conditions.

Go Bright is a bright, cheerful dress down day that encourages people to wear one item of bright clothing, or a super wacky, creative outfit in exchange for a small donation.

How your donation can make a difference:

£10 can provide alert cards to people living with muscle wasting conditions, so vital information about their healthcare needs is available in an medical emergency.

£180 can fund laboratory equipment to help researchers investigate new treatments for people with living with muscle wasting conditions.

£300 can provide three days helpline support from a member of MDUK staff.
