Duchenne UK

Who we are

Duchenne UK works to create a future without Duchenne muscular dystrophy, while supporting those affected today.

We work tirelessly to challenge barriers, deliver practical solutions, and speed up progress for families affected by Duchenne. We collaborate with leading researchers, clinicians, industry and our charity partners, to deliver hope and measurable progress for people living with Duchenne in the UK.

Together, we are improving care, accelerating access to potentially life-changing treatments, pioneering assistive technologies, and creating a thriving research landscape.
