Edinburgh Youth Orchestra

Action Duchenne

at Perth Concert Hall

I would like to take the opportunity to thank the Edinburgh Youth Orchestra, Julian Lloyd Webber, Marjory Dougal, the Butterworth family and all involved with creating what can only be described as the most moving and enjoyable musical concert that I have attended in a very long time. The 3 concerts that have taken place to help raise funds for the charity has being an overwhelming experience. Over £1,000 was raised due to the hard work and dedication from all involved and these funds will help continue to fund the clinicians and scientists that seek a treatment or cure for Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy. Funds raised from events like this not only helps the hopes of patients with Duchenne but also helps to raise the awareness of this devastating muscle wasting condition. As a father of a son with Duchenne, and as Regional Advocate for Scotland for Action Duchenne, I thank you all from the bottom of my heart for what you have done. Dean Widd
