Pennthorpe School fundraiser for Duchenne UK

Pennthorpe School is raising money for Duchenne UK

Duvet Day · 30 June 2025

As the leading Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) charity in the UK, we want to find effective treatments for DMD and end its devastating impact. We’re going further than anyone has before, and we’re doing it faster, because this generation of people living with DMD can’t wait.

Story

At Pennthorpe, we are always inspired by the compassion and creativity of our pupils, and this week, two of them have taken that spirit to a whole new level.

Arabella and Lexi have come up with a brilliant and heartwarming idea to support their younger brother Jasper, who lives with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy.

Their idea? A Duchenne Duvet Day—a fun, cosy way for the whole school community to show their support while raising funds for Duchenne UK, the leading charity working to find treatments and ultimately a cure for this life-limiting condition.
