This week’s blog was written by four Huntington’s disease charities across the UK and Ireland, who are working together to raise awareness of the impact of Huntington’s disease, not just on individuals, but on families too. The Huntington’s Disease Alliance UK and Ireland launched the Family Matters campaign at the beginning of May 2021 with the hopes of promoting an improved understanding of the unique pressures of the disease upon the families it affects.
