Action Duchenne has a very clear vision: a world where lives are no longer limited by Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD).
They have three core objectives and are proud that they spend 88.7p in every £1 raised on charitable activities (support, research and education)

Developing effective treatments for all by funding research, supporting clinical trials and campaigning for access.

Building a community by uniting and supporting families, educating about Duchenne and raising the profile of the condition.

Striving for a more inclusive society promoting the importance of human equality, day to day acceptance of disability and accessibility.
While they hope that research and clinical trials will one day lead to a treatment, or a cure for Duchenne, they believe it is vital to support families living with the condition today. They support families from diagnosis through their whole Duchenne journey.
They unite and support families, educating about Duchenne and raising the profile of the condition.
Their International Conference each November brings together Duchenne families, clinicians, therapists, researchers, pharmaceutical companies and, most importantly, those living with Duchenne muscular dystrophy from across the globe.

Their engaging ‘Science on Tour’ programmes are free workshops that run across the UK. The aim is to help you make informed decisions, understand more about the scientific research of Duchenne and get up to date information about treatment options.

Positive Behaviour Support
As a member of the British Institute of Learning Disabilities (BILD), Aspens believes that to improve the quality of life, independence and autonomy of the people we support, Positive Behaviour Support (PBS) must be a cornerstone of our ethos and values.

Positive Behaviour Support is a multi-component framework for understanding and supporting people who display behaviours of concern. By understanding the context in which these behaviours occur we can implement proactive, evidence-based strategies to enhance all areas of an individual's life.

(NB Aspens are lot local and do not provide support services in Lincolnshire)
