Every other day in the UK, a baby is born who may develop serious mitochondrial disease. The Lily Foundation was founded in 2007 by Liz Curtis in memory of her daughter Lily, who died from mito at just 8 months old. Finding little information or support to help her, Liz set out to provide answers for herself and others in her situation. The charity exists today to support affected patients and families, raise awareness of this little-known but incurable genetic condition and fund research into treatments and an eventual cure.

Brighton’s Butterfly Trail for The Lily Foundation 🦋

Indelible Fine Art is bringing a Butterfly Trail to Brighton’s North Laine to raise awareness and funds for The Lily Foundation.

Families and visitors will be invited to follow a trail of butterflies displayed in local independent shops and businesses, complete the challenge and learn more about mitochondrial disease along the way.

The Lily Foundation supports children and families affected by mitochondrial disease and funds vital research into treatments and, ultimately, a cure.

Mitochondrial disease is a serious genetic condition that can affect the body’s ability to produce the energy it needs. It often affects babies and young children, and there is currently no cure.

Every donation, however large or small, will help support the charity’s important work.

Thank you for helping us make Brighton’s Butterfly Trail something truly meaningful.

Organised by Indelible Fine Art in support of The Lily Foundation.
