We are dedicated to improving the lives of people affected by muscular dystrophy and related neuromuscular conditions.

The Muscular Dystrophy Campaign has been supporting families that have or are being affected by muscle-wasting conditions since 1959.  Fighting to fund research for effective treatments and cures, as well as providing free care and support to individuals and families affected by muscle-wasting conditions.

We are willing to look at any case put to us, for example, getting the appropriate care package, applying for housing adaptations or access to specialist health care services. The advocacy team also offers free advocacy, support and advice to anyone who is experiencing difficulties with their local services. 

Our work has five main focuses:

• We fund world-class research to find effective treatments and cures
• We provide practical information, advice and emotional support  for individuals with muscular dystrophy and other related conditions, their carers and families
• We campaign to bring about change and raise awareness of muscular dystrophy and other related conditions
• We award grants towards the cost of specialist equipment, such as powered wheelchairs
• We provide specialist education and development for health professionals.
