Absolutely fantastic HD Awareness and Fundraising walk today in Whitley Bay

Was so lovely to see so many people out supporting Huntington's Disease Association

We set our target at £300 and are currently sitting at just over £1000...

I'm still surprised by people's generosity and it is genuinely humbling - thank you to everyone who has shared and donated.

Just to say - the stock of t-shirts available is very, very limited... unfortunately, I can only get 2 in each size sent from the HD Association...so, I'd encourage people to wear Green if you can on Sunday!! 💚💚

Only three days to go before our Northumberland, Tyne and Wear Support Group Fundraising Walk 2026

Sunday 5th July meeting at 10.30 at Spanish City for an 11am start 🚨

Please join us for our walk along the beautiful North Tyneside coast from Spanish City to St Mary's Lighthouse - to help send local families to the National HDA conference this year.

Thanks to all of our amazing donors, we have now raised over double our £300 target!

There is still time to join us, donate or share our page if you haven't already

Keep your fingers crossed it stays dry but the weather forecast looks a bit cooler for Sunday so that should make the walk a bit easier!
