A new addition at the Conference in 2024, the Pit Stop is back as our support and wellbeing area for parents and carers. We recognise that the conference can feel overwhelming and bring up a lot of emotion for families.  We want to provide a safe quiet space for when it all feels a bit much.  

The Pit Stop space will have mental health counsellors, holistic therapists, and health care professionals alongside our own support staff to give guidance and listen to anyone who needs it. There will be the opportunity for our monthly support groups to take place in-person. 

It’s a place to get some time out, make community connections, meet others who are navigating the Duchenne journey and to find out what further support Action Duchenne can offer beyond the conference.
