Huntington’s disease (HD) is a hereditary condition causing profound physical and mental ill-health, usually starting at age 30-45 and leading to death 15-25 years later. Over 800 people in Scotland now have the disease. Every person born into an HD family has a 50:50 chance of inheriting the disease. The Scottish Huntington’s Association is the only organisation in Scotland providing specialist help in the community for HD families. We do this through:•Regional HD Care Specialists providing long-term care management and emotional support.• A specialist Youth Project providing mentoring and befriending for people aged under 25.•A dedicated Palliative Care Trainer working to improve care provided by other agencies.•Empowering individuals and families to establish Family Branches and Support Groups. Please choose the Scottish Huntington’s Association as your beneficiary charity, and help us to continue providing expert care and support to families in Scotland living with Huntington’s disease.
