WORLD DUCHENNE AWARENESS DAY

Motion Text

That this House recognises that World Duchenne Awareness Day on 7 September 2015 offers the opportunity to create greater knowledge of that condition; offers congratulations to Laura Smith, a mother from Limavady, who was declared the Muscular Dystrophy UK champion for her outstanding work in highlighting the incurable form of muscular dystrophy known as Duchenne which her six-year-old son Callum suffers from; and commends her and all those who campaign for more research into the condition.
