Story
The Lily Foundation was founded in Lily's memory, having lost her battle to Mitochondrial Disease at just eight months old. The charity aims to give hope, answers and support to the many other children and families that face the challenges of this disease today.
Did you know every twenty minutes a child is born who will develop Mitochondrial Disease by the age of 16! There is no cure for this disease which is for many, debilitating and life limiting.
Please stand with us and fight Mitochondrial Disease and fight for hope.
On Thursday 20th July, Acomb Primary School we will be taking part in a 'Moveathon' to raise money for our charity of the year 'The Lily Foundation'. Each class will be allocated a time slot of 30 minutes to see how many times they can move, walk, jump or skip around a specific course.
