Support our work in Hurler syndrome (MPS I-H)

Hurler syndrome, also known as severe MPS I (MPS I-H), is exceptionally rare, yet its effect on children and families can be life changing. By backing our mission, you help expand knowledge, improve data collection, strengthen research links and provide families with clearer guidance through diagnosis, treatment and lifelong care.

Every gift of time, expertise or funding helps us deliver reliable information, reinforce registries and advocate for improved services and future therapeutic progress.

This page welcomes families, friends, professionals, organisations and anyone who wants to contribute to progress in Hurler syndrome.

Why your support is so important

Rare diseases such as Hurler syndrome face unique challenges. Smaller patient populations, limited specialist centres and lower public awareness make research, long-term tracking and tailored family resources more difficult. Your involvement helps bridge these gaps.

  • Better information for families
    Trusted, accessible guidance for parents, carers and young people at every stage of their journey.
  • Stronger data and registries
    Supporting projects that improve long-term monitoring and real-world evidence in MPS I-H.
  • Research and innovation
    Highlighting unmet needs and encouraging collaborative research focused specifically on Hurler syndrome.
  • Advocacy and awareness
    Amplifying the voice of families within health systems and policy discussions around diagnosis, access and long-term support.

What your support helps us do

We use contributions carefully and transparently, keeping Hurler syndrome as our sole focus.

  • Information and education
    Creating and updating practical guides on diagnosis, treatments and daily life, including resources for schools and local healthcare teams.
  • Data and registries
    Supporting collaborations that improve follow-up data and helping families understand registry findings.
  • Research priorities
    Sharing clear summaries of new studies and promoting priority research questions.
  • Advocacy and awareness
    Providing evidence for campaigns around newborn screening, care access and long-term services.

We do not provide clinical care or make individual treatment decisions. Our role is focused on information, data, research collaboration and advocacy.
