Since then diagnosis of the different forms of muscular dystrophy and related muscle diseases has improved hugely and the charity now provides support for more than 60 different muscle-wasting conditions, as well as funding many key research developments. Lord Attenborough served as the charity’s President for 30 years, until 2002, when he became an Honorary Life President. Lord Attenborough remains an inspirational supporter of the Muscular Dystrophy Campaign and the Richard Attenborough Fellowship Fund has been established to honor his commitment to world-class research.Sue Barker took over the role of President in 2004, and is an active supporter, attending many charity events including the charity’s annual national conferences.Prince Philip became Patron of the Muscular Dystrophy Campaign in 1966 and has been a much-valued supporter ever since.".
