For 2026, Fox Payne are proud to have partnered with the charity Duchenne UK and specifically the Ben vs Duchenne Family Fund.  Please take 4 mins to watch Ben's film, then visit our Just Giving page to add your support by making a donation.

Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a progressive condition diagnosed in childhood. It causes all the muscles in the body to gradually weaken, including the heart and lungs.  DMD almost always affects boys. It is typically diagnosed in childhood between the age of three and six. 

There is currently no cure for Duchenne, but there is hope.  Duchenne UK are at the forefront of advancing treatments and care for everyone affected by the disease.

Ben and his family get to decide where to allocate all the funds raised, whether that’s research, care or a technology project.

During the course of 2026, we will hold a number of fundraising awareness events, please keep your eyes open on our linked in for updates: Fox Payne Associates Limited | LinkedIn  

Wear Red for World Duchenne Awareness Day

On Monday 7th September, which is World Duchenne Awareness Day, please join us in wearing red to help promote awareness about DMD.

Something special for Ben 

As you will have seen in Ben’s film, he is passionate about planes and Formula 1. Perhaps someone you know might be able to help us organise something extraordinary for him like an F1 experience or something to do with fast jets like tickets to an air show. If you or anyone in your network may be able to support, we would love to hear from you.
