The
Tavistock Branch of the Musucular Dystrophy Campaign has successfully organised
an annual respite holiday for local young
people with MD for over 35 years.
Through
our Holiday Project, we can: - provide young people with MD with a unique
opportunity to socialise with others in a similar situation, as well as the chance
to integrate in a fun way with able-bodied young people - a much-needed chance
to escape the reality of knowing that they will die at a young age.
- provide
a well-earned break for their regular carers and families. In particular parents
have a chance to focus their attention on siblings for a while.
-
enable our young volunteer helpers to experience the problems facing those with
disabilities and to widen their own horizons.

the Holiday Project here.
