Moving Forward, a project made by the European Huntington Association

« Fabulous Project » « Very important project. You are doing your job very professionally, supporting and connecting people with HD in Europe, working together with researchers, neurologists, geneticists and other healthcare professionals, sharing information with HD families. »

« Excellent initiative from the European Huntington Association, with all kinds of information and contents » « I had the pleasure of participating in one of the most spectacular HD events of my life thanks to the European Huntington Association »

"Moving Forward is a fantastic project by the EHA that provides educational and emotional support to HD families! I am glad that I had the opportunity to be a part of its activities. It is an important step in connecting people affected by HD worldwide, in improving care, and in strengthening the HD community!"

"I believe this is a unique project that moves science and society forward - towards awareness and a better quality of life for families, towards an understanding of the disease and, therefore, knowledge about the behaviour of people who suffer from HD, towards a better research process. I would like to say a special word about the website of the project - this is a unique place where you can find everything - books related to Huntington's disease, various resources on nutrition and care, clinical guidelines from different countries, video interviews with families. There is no other resource like it in the world."

"The Moving Forward meeting has been a very positive experience for all of us, which has allowed us not only to strengthen the bond between clinicians, researchers, biobank and the patients and families affected by this disease, but also to share hopes and realities. Thank you very much for your effort and participation".

"Moving Forward brings us all together, researchers, professionals, family members and patients. It gives us a face and enables us to speak without barriers, without fear, with confidence. The essential ingredient of meetings such as the Moving Forward meeting in Valencia are emotions, and these are undoubtedly provided by the testimonies of patients and their families. It is a privilege to be part of the unconditional HD community".

"Young people who are pre-symptomatic or possible carriers of Huntington's disease are a group with great potential but often invisible. We need to pay more attention and increase the participation of this group in the global health and social movement of the wider Huntington family, as they are the ones who must lead the change. Moving Forward is an ideal project to promote unity, strength and coordination among those who share the same situation. It is about pursuing common goals and building a path towards a future in which the prevention of the onset of the disease is one of the research priorities."

“Knowledge is Key - that is why the Moving Forward project is so important. It helps to inform the Huntington’s community about upcoming trials, supports people by providing information about the disease and empowers people by helping them raise their voices. I especially love the list of books related to HD in the bookshelf section. The Moving Forward project is an important resource for the HD community.”

All these initiatives are a relief, they are comforting. They help on a daily basis, both the professionals who are dedicated to care, as well as the patients and their families. Therefore, thank you to the Moving Forward project!
