Families Supporting Families
The DFSG is a UK national charity, run by families for families affected by DMD. We have been bringing people together for mutual support, information sharing, and social activities since 1987.
You are not alone. Whether you are dealing with a new diagnosis of Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD) or are further along in the journey, the Duchenne Family Support Group is here for you.
Our helpline: 0800 121 4518
The Winter Edition of the Duchenne News is out now!
If you have a family member with Duchenne muscular dystrophy, or you are a care professional with an interest in the condition, you can receive our quarterly newsletter for free.
Membership of the Duchenne Family Support Group is free and without obligation.
A one-off donation can make a real difference. If you’re able to give, you can donate securely through PayPal, and we’re so grateful for your support.
