Juvenile Huntington's Disease
Find out more about JHD
JHD is not a well-known disability. That is why we have provided a section of this site filled with information on both HD and JHD.
We have an informative page where you can read more about JHD. There are also links provided for more info. Click Here!
What we want to achieve...
By raising around £10,000 Sheenam will be able to provide help for those who need it most. JHD patients will have a lot of expenses which can sometimes burden the family caring. We want to provide short breaks and treats for patients and carers of JHD.
Awesome, so whats next
