The Lily Foundation
Because of You - Lily Foundation Christmas Campaign. Meet James.

Film & Campaign Description

Your generosity enables us to run events that make a real difference to those living with mitochondrial disease. Events like our Young Adult Support Weekend, where patients like James can form lifelong friendships with others who understand his condition, and find a place where he belongs. Events like our weekly virtual coffee mornings where patients find comfort and community – these crucial services exist because of donations like yours.

Because of you, we’re there for people like James, providing everything from practical advice and financial assistance to emotional support. The Lily Foundation are guiding patients through the challenges of living with mitochondrial disease, every step of the way.
