Description
This week's episode is with Ashley Clarke, a devoted advocate for Huntington's Disease in Northern Ireland! After watching her father experience this terrible condition, she started to educate others about Huntington's Disease and research to create a safe and inclusive community. In this episode, she shares the numerous ways in which she advocates for Huntington's globally and continues to make a positive and supportive environment for all. She is also very involved with the HDYO (Huntington's Disease Youth Organization) and recently gave an amazing speech at the opening of the HDYO congress in the Glasgow City Chambers in front of hundreds of people! In this episode, me and Ashley talk about drugs that are currently being developed and tested to cure Huntington's in the near future, the positive shift in awareness for Huntington's and other neurological disorders in the past 10 years, and the amazing work organizations like HDYO are doing for Huntington's to raise awareness and help diagnosed individuals and loved ones feel comfortable and supported!
