Join the characters of Dystonia Animated as they show you their lives with dystonia.
Dystonia Animated is a series of short animations, as part of our Reach Out, Reach All campaign. They focus on “What is dystonia?” in children and how the diagnosis affects their lives.
With help from families and young people with dystonia, we created the first episode which centres around explaining dystonia in a format children and young people can relate to and with language suitable for their age.
Future episodes will focus on the different parts of the journey our young people face; so join Dani, Charlie and a host of characters as they show you their lives with dystonia.

In this episode we are so excited to introduce you to Dani, Charlie and some of their family. They share what their lives are like with a dystonia diagnosis. Read more
