The Energy Ball 2025 – A Huge Success!

We’re thrilled to announce that we raised an incredible £11,680 at The Energy Ball 2025 – a fantastic achievement!
Thank you so much to those who joined us. It was fantastic to see everyone coming together to enjoy the entertainment, take part in the games, and have fun with all the wonderful prizes and auctions.
All the photos and magic mirror snaps from the evening have now been uploaded to our website – do have a look and relive the magic here.
We were especially thrilled to have 18 individuals and families impacted by mitochondrial disease with us on the night. We hope you felt the warmth and support from our community and everyone involved. Of course, we also remember those who couldn’t be with us – forever in our hearts.
A special heartfelt thank you to our headline sponsor, KTH Engineering Group, whose generous support made the night possible. We owe so much to Richard Ellis and the team, who enable us to do so much more as a charity by donating office space to us at their Elland site – we couldn’t run events, host volunteers and staff, and store all the things we need to run our charity without them. Please learn more about KTH Engineering Group here.
Thank you also to our other sponsors, donors, and supporters – including Freemans, Gaggia, Hebask, David Whitehead, Jones Jewellery, Safe Anchor Trust, Alan Hill, Lattitude7, Towngate, Safety Systems Technology, Thornhill Estates, and of course our missionee and artist Paul Jorden! A huge donation also came from the Rock Choir who entertained everyone with an outstanding performance! And last but not least, thank you to our amazing volunteers who helped on the night and pulled in so many wonderful prizes.
Save The Date
Next year’s ball will take place on Saturday 25th April 2026, at the same venue, the stunning Cedar Court Bradford! If you’d like to be the first to know when tickets are released, and catch those discounted ‘early bird’ prices, please register your interest using the form here.

My Mito Mission at the Mitochondrial Disease Patient Info Day in Newcastle!

We were absolutely delighted to attend the Newcastle Mito Patient Information Day!
We spent the day meeting and connecting with families impacted by mito, researchers and medical professionals working hard to improve the quality of life and care for mito patients, and our incredible fellow charities & organisations: The Lily Foundation, who we’ve collaborated with in our research funding previously, The Noah Jordan Foundation, a recently formed paediatric mitochondrial disease charity, and Muscular Dystrophy UK.
We took the opportunity to continue promoting our free medical alert wristbands for mito patients, designed to provide a little peace of mind. Anybody with a diagnosis of mitochondrial disease can order one online for themselves or on behalf of their loved one (UK only).
A big thank you to all the brilliant organisers of this event, and to all who attended! It was amazing to meet so many different families and hear their stories, and to discuss collaborations and developments with research specialists.
