THE A-T APPEAL

(Ataxia-Telangiectasia)

We are the parents of a 17 year old daughter, Siān, who was diagnosed with the genetic condition Ataxia-Telangiectasia (A-T) in 1988. We have two other children, Laura (aged 19) and Tim (16) who are both free of A-T.

We have established a UK charity called The A-T Appeal. Our aims are to help advance knowledge and clinical expertise in A-T through research, with the ultimate goal of finding therapies to benefit everyone affected by Ataxia-Telangiectasia. We also provide information and support and welcome contact with other A-T families around the world so that we can share information and experiences of A-T.

We would also like to hear from scientists, doctors, medical and health care professionals who are either already involved with A-T, or who wish to know more about it. We want to strike up a dialogue with people out there who have some interest in A-T. e-mail: atinuk@innotts.co.uk

We look forward to hearing from you:
