About Mito

Mito or Mitochondrial disease is a rare genetic disorder. Our mitochondria are essentially the tiny organelles within our cells that generate most of the energy we require to function.

Without healthy mitochondria, cells cannot function properly and the results can be debilitating and eventually life-ending.

It’s a complex and difficult-to-diagnose condition that affects people in very different ways. It often affects babies and young children, and the long-term prognosis for sufferers is poor.

There is currently no cure for mitochondrial disorders, but The Lily Foundation are working hard to change that and support those affected.

About the Lily Foundation

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.
