Ragdolls UK Support Group
Other
We would use the funding to provide a local support group for girls with Turner's Syndrome, including hall hire and information packs.
About this cause
We support girls with Turner's Syndrome and their families. Our support comes in the following: - Awareness campaigns - Support groups We would like to open a new support group in the area. Whilst there is some help out their for parents there is very little for the rest of the family. Speaking to STV news in 2015, Tracey Connelly stated, “I was diagnosed with Turner’s Syndrome as an infant and although the doctors were there every step of the way, as I got older I realised that no one had asked any of my three brothers how they felt. There was no real support or information available to them to help them understand the condition. Ragdolls UK was set up to be inclusive of everyone who feels they could use a friendly ear.”
How this cause brings people in the community together
We would bring together TS girls in lifelong friendship. We would also involve the local community in learning more about TS as well as help shape the future of our cause.
