World Mito Week Round Up 2026

What an incredible week we’ve all had in the mito community, powering awareness for mitochondrial disease and connecting with others impacted across the UK.

Just some of what we had going on at My Mito Mission included Glow Walks, attending Patient Information Days at Newcastle and Oxford, lighting up over 30 buildings in green, providing free Light Up For Mito candle holders and glow sticks, Facebook frames, and of course lots of mission activity! All incredible to see and so powerful.
