Graeme Souness and Isla Grist announce new DEBRA UK challenge on BBC Breakfast

DEBRA UK Vice President Graeme Souness CBE and Team DEBRA are back this September with another epic challenge to ‘BE the difference for EB.’
Last year, Graeme and the team swam the 30-mile stretch of the English Channel to help stop the pain of EB. Thanks to the support of you and thousands of people from all over the UK and abroad, we were able to start our drug repurposing journey with the first EB clinical trial being commissioned.
There is however still so much more to do for people living with the excruciating pain of EB, which is why the team is getting back together. This year, they’re going bigger and better by swimming the Channel there and back, followed by 85 miles of cycling from Dover to London!
Please donate today and BE the difference for EB: bit.ly/4fgIQc6
