Grants Update

Thanks to our fabulous supporters, we were able to contribute to an important new study through our friends at The Lily Foundation. Due to start next month, this study will explore the links between mito and neuropsychiatric diseases – a blanket term that covers a broad range of medical conditions involving neurology and psychiatry.

Read more here about this exciting project which will hopefully lead to improved information, mental health care and treatments for mito patients.

Our previous grant funding projects through Lily have been:
– 4-year gene editing research project
– support weekend for young adults
– enabling mitochondrial disease to become a part of The RUDY Study
… more information on all of these projects through the links.

With your amazing help, we’ll continue to raise awareness and hopes of treatments and a cure for mitochondrial disease, and support for those affected.
