🌟 Special Recognition 🌟

As we come to the end of the HD Africa Cycling Challenge 2025, we’d like to give a heartfelt thank you to Martin, Vaneyck, and Sebastian — who went above and beyond.

Their commitment pushed physical limits and carried the message of Huntington’s Disease awareness across borders.

We see you. We celebrate you and we thank you.

HUNTINGTONS DISEASE AFRICA

Huntington’s disease Africa, is the continent’s flagship Huntington’s disease advocacy body and an affiliate of the International Huntington Association (IHA). Its Headquarters are in Nairobi, Kenya. There could never be a time better than the present to launch an organization that illuminates the invisible HD population that comprises Sub-Saharan Africans.

We at HDA are keen to ensure that work on this population starts and gains momentum. Taken together we hope to attract high quality research, create awareness and bring this long lost population closer to others like itself worldwide.
