Duchenne Family Support Group

The Duchenne Family Support Group (DFSG) exists to provide support for families. The DFSG was started in 1987 by a small group of parents who had children diagnosed as having Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy.

Since then, the number of families has increased dramatically and contacts have been established all over the country, as well as abroad, creating a wealth of information.

The DFSG is a national charity run by families for families affected by DMD. It provides a positive national support network of parents, their families and professionals.

The DFSG helps bring families together for mutual support, sharing of information and experience, and social activities.
