From a very young age, George struggled with crawling and then only began walking from the age of two, while continuing to have difficulty with rising from the floor and climbing stairs. Lilian and George took him for a physical assessment, after which he went under a muscle biopsy. At just three years old George was diagnosed with Duchenne muscular dystrophy.

This led to the founding of George’s Journey. The Pegg family – including George himself have been incredibly active in their efforts to raise funds for Muscular Dystrophy UK. Since setting up George's Journey the family have raised a staggering £200,000 for pioneering research into Duchenne muscular dystrophy.

Net proceeds from George's Journey will be split 80% for research into Duchenne muscular dystrophy and 20% for the family's welfare
