Mitochondrial Disease or ‘Mito’ is a genetic disorder affecting the mitochondria – the ‘battery packs’ in our cells. When they fail to produce enough energy, damage occurs – especially to the major organs.
Mito is one of the most common genetic conditions, is progressive and can be life-limiting. Currently there is no treatment or cure.
It takes a sprinkling of courage to
support a lesser known cause.
That’s just one of the reasons why
we call our fabulous supporters our
‘Mito Heroes’. We simply couldn’t do
what we do … without your help.
… it’s all the same cause.
We’re a network of missions, under one umbrella. Empowering those affected to make a positive difference with a person-centred campaign.
Individually making a local impact. Together making a national difference.
Have mito? Missions are an easy way to raise awareness and understanding amongst your family, friends and community, along with funds for research and support. New missions are always welcome.
We aim to build the Mito Directory into as comprehensive a resource on ‘everything mito’ as possible that’s aimed at the general public.
Want to know what books are available about mito, for instance? The directory will tell you.
There’s a wealth of information in 9 easy categories, to save you time searching.
We welcome suggestions on what else we might add, any amendments we might make or how we might improve the usefulness of this resource.
