Helena Bonham Carter becomes patron of Action Duchenne

Howard Lake | 1 October 2008 | News

Actress Helena Bonham Carter has become the first patron of Action Duchenne, the charity that supports parents and sufferers of Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy.

The Oscar and Golden Globe-nominated actress joins other famous supporters of the charity, including Tim Henman OBE, Mike Brearley OBE, Maureen Lipman CBE, Lloyd Honeyghan, Lord David Puttnam and Bryan Robson OBE.

Helena Bonham-Carter said: “As a patron of Action Duchenne, I would like to urge as many people as possible to find out about the work of the charity and the devastating effects of Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy. Treatments and a cure seem tantalisingly close but they will not appear without further support and funding”.
