Muscular Dystrophy ...

  The Muscular Dystrophy Forum



Muscular Dystrophy is a progressive genetic condition that causes weakening and wasting of muscles. Muscular dystrophy and other neuromuscular disorders are not contagious, but anyone can get them. They are usually inherited from a parent or parents through their genes, but sometimes appear out of the blue. They affect babies, children, young people and adults of any race.

The Muscular Dystrophy Campaign is the only UK charity focusing on all muscular dystrophies and allied disorders.

It has pioneered the search for treatments and cures for over 40 years and provides practical, medical and emotional support to people affected by the condition.
