The Muscular Dystrophy Support Centre provides specialist therapies, wellbeing support, and opportunities for connection to help people with muscular dystrophy and related neuromuscular conditions live well for longer.
Supporting more than 700 people each year across the Midlands and beyond, we offer ongoing support that helps people maintain mobility, independence, and quality of life.
Who we are
The Centre was founded by people affected by muscular dystrophy who believed specialist support should be available to everyone who needs it.
Today, we provide physiotherapy, osteopathy, hand therapy, exercise programmes, wellbeing support, and social opportunities designed specifically for people living with neuromuscular conditions.
