About the organisation
Mitochondrial disease is a potentially fatal genetic disorder that robs the body's cells of the energy they need to thrive. Only recently identified and originally thought to be a rare disorder (affecting 1 in 20,000 people), it is now known that 1 in 5,000 live births will result in a life threatening form of mitochondrial disease. Furthermore, 1 in 200 people carry genetic mutations that put them at risk of developing milder forms of the disease or unknowingly passing the disease on to their children.
The Mito Foundation supports the mito community whilst seeking a cure through a range of support services and by funding research.
