A message from us to you

Dear Community

TreatSMA has taken today to give remembrance to the Angels and the Warriors of the global SMA community tonight as we light a candle alongside you all to remember and make sure we never forget.

In honour of those that lost their fight to SMA, the Trustees at Treatsma have each potted a plant named ‘Angel Wings’ to remember the Angels taken too soon.

We would also like to give thanks to the families who have allowed us to share precious photos of their beloved angels in the video below.
