Marci is a cheerful 5-year-old boy who lives with Duchenne muscular dystrophy. He was diagnosed with the condition three years ago, and since then, efforts have been made to maintain his mobility through regular aqua aerobics, physiotherapy and other treatments.

Thanks to his treatment, Marci is still attending nursery; he loves cycling and playing carefree. His family are fighting to ensure he can receive the gene therapy that offers him hope, as, given his age, this may well be his best chance to do so right now.

Your support could help ensure that Marci gets this life-changing opportunity and can remain an active, cheerful little boy for many years to come.
