Why should you do the Dash?

David and Lindsey Mulroy’s son, Luca, was diagnosed with DMD in February 2022 when he was six years old. After receiving the devastating news, they decided to sign up for the Duchenne Dash and brought two colleagues along as part of a team. 

I’d encourage people to sign up for the Dash because Duchenne UK is fundamentally changing the world for families like mine. What they’ve achieved is astonishing and if you’re going to do something for a charity, then you can with 100% certainty know that every pound you raise will make a real, tangible and very precious difference to our boys.” – Lindsey Mulroy.

To date, the Dash has raised over £8 million which has funded research into new drugs and treatments, ground-breaking technology and ensuring all boys with DMD get the best standard of care.
