We are PCD Support UK. We’re here for those affected by PCD, we talk about PCD as widely as possible and we champion research to improve its diagnosis, management and treatment. Primary Ciliary Dyskinesia is a rare, genetic disease (1 in 7,500 people), causing recurrent respiratory infections.

Story

🌟 Running for Our Little Miracle 🌟

This year, our beautiful girl was finally diagnosed with Primary Ciliary Dyskinesia (PCD) after a four-year fight for answers. It’s been an incredibly tough journey, but through every hospital visit, setback, and challenge, she’s faced it all with the biggest smile on her face.

So, as a family, we’re lacing up and running a half marathon to raise awareness for PCD and to show her just how loved and supported she truly is.

We’re heading into the new year with a stronger mindset, a full heart, and a mission: to turn a difficult chapter into something powerful, positive, and full of hope.

Every donation, share, and message of support means the world to us — and to her. 💛

Thank you for helping us make a difference, one step at a time.

Primary Ciliary Dyskinesia (PCD) is a rare, genetic disease affecting around 1 in 15,000 people in the UK. It's caused by abnormal motile cilia (motile cilia are the microscopic hairs that beat in the airways, sweeping secretions out of the respiratory tract). PCD can affect the lungs, nose, sinuses, ears and fertility and causes recurrent respiratory infections.
