Learn more about us
The Huntington's Disease Association is the only organisation in England and Wales offering support to people affected by Huntington's disease. Huntington's disease is a life-limiting, genetic disorder that causes a breakdown of nerve cells in the brain. This leads to symptoms affecting three main areas, movement, behaviour and cognition. Through our work we offer practical advice and support, training to health and social care professionals and fund research into the disease. We want a better life for anyone affected by Huntington's disease. We currently support around 8000 people affected by Huntington's disease; whether they have Huntington's, care for people who have Huntington's or are at risk of developing the disease in the future, we are here for them every step of the way.
