Hello Steven,
We are launching an urgent appeal to fund research into COVID-19 and its impact on children.
Whilst research is underway to help understand the disease in adults, there is a huge gap in the research specifically focusing on children and how the virus and pandemic affects them.
Parents are living in fear of the unknown with many unanswered questions that need tackling: Why do some children with COVID-19 get so sick and others don't? What are the long-term effects of this condition for my child? How will COVID-19 affect my child's mental health?
We must not forget about children in the fight against this pandemic.
That's why we've launched our COVID-19 children's research appeal to raise over ?1 million to fund new, high quality research to help understand the impact COVID-19 is having specifically on children.
This is an extraordinary call for research, but we need your help to make it happen. The amount of research we are able to fund into COVID-19 depends entirely on how much we raise from this appeal. ?
Please donate now
?
Protecting children, now and always???????
Thanks to supporters like you, for nearly 70 years Action has risen to the medical research challenges of the day, developing life-saving vaccines, treatments and cures - saving countless lives. Today we face a new threat - COVID-19.
We are ready to act to help protect our children, but we urgently need the funding to make this happen.
If you can, please donate today
100% of your donation will go directly to our research into COVID-19, so this is a unique opportunity to play a part in helping find the answers that could protect a generation of children.
Every donation really does make a difference. We receive no government funding for research, so this vital work simply won't go ahead without support like yours.
Thank you
Julie Buckler
Chief Executive?
PS Please give a donation today and help us fund new research for children in the fight against COVID-19

ACTION EMERGENCY APPEAL?
Dear Steven,
As you would expect, we are doing all we can as a charity to continue funding medical research for sick and vulnerable babies and children, in the face of the?rapidly-unfolding?coronavirus threat.?
Already?in the UK, there are hundreds of thousands of sick and disabled babies, children and young people, affected by a range of?devastating?physical and mental conditions.??
Whilst the?world is?turned upside down by coronavirus,?these?children and families?still?need our help?- now and always?- to develop treatments, vaccinations and cures?that could save lives. Research can bring hope to these families.?
As a charity that receives no government funding, our ability to fund this vital research relies entirely on voluntary support. And much of our income comes from events that people take part in. With so many?of these?events?now having to be cancelled,?we know we have a big gap to fill, urgently.? And?so?we need your help now more than ever.?
A research project?can?cost around ?220,000.?Can you help us now and ensure we continue to fund vital research for sick babies and children?
Children like?Ella who was born six weeks early leaving her vulnerable to infection. Ella fell ill with what at first seemed to be a simple cold, but soon turned into a fight for life. She was rushed to hospital with a severe case of bronchiolitis, a potentially?life threatening?lung infection.?
We are funding research searching for effective treatments to fight this infection, giving hope to families like Ella's.?
Please give what you can now. Any gift large or small will help us get closer to this important target.??
Please help us continue to fund research for vulnerable children
With your help we can fight back and save and change children's lives - now and always.?
Yours sincerely,
Julie Buckler?

How does COVID-19 affect our children?
Medical research is underway to help beat COVID-19 but there is a worrying lack of research specifically focusing on children and how the virus affects them. We urgently need to fill this gap in research. That's why we've launched our COVID-19 children's research appeal. We need to raise over ?1 million to fund vital research to understand the effects of the pandemic on our children. Please help with a donation today - 100% of your gift will go towards making this research happen.

New research into a rare brain disease
Despite the challenges of recent months, we will be funding?new?research to help children with a rare illness,?caused by the immune system mistakenly attacking the brain. Dr Michael Eyre will?investigate?if advanced early scans can?identify vital clues that could?help doctors to personalise?treatment.?It''s hoped this will lead to earlier symptom control, shorter hospital stays and reduced long-term effects for children.

ACTION EMERGENCY APPEAL?
Dear Steven,
As you would expect, we are doing all we can as a charity to continue funding medical research for sick and vulnerable babies and children, in the face of the?rapidly-unfolding?coronavirus threat.?
Already?in the UK, there are hundreds of thousands of sick and disabled babies, children and young people, affected by a range of?devastating?physical and mental conditions.??
Whilst the?world is?turned upside down by coronavirus,?these?children and families?still?need our help?- now and always?- to develop treatments, vaccinations and cures?that could save lives. Research can bring hope to these families.?
As a charity that receives no government funding, our ability to fund this vital research relies entirely on voluntary support. And much of our income comes from events that people take part in. With so many?of these?events?now having to be cancelled,?we know we have a big gap to fill, urgently.? And?so?we need your help now more than ever.?
A research project?can?cost around ?220,000.?Can you help us now and ensure we continue to fund vital research for sick babies and children?
Children like?Ella who was born six weeks early leaving her vulnerable to infection. Ella fell ill with what at first seemed to be a simple cold, but soon turned into a fight for life. She was rushed to hospital with a severe case of bronchiolitis, a potentially?life threatening?lung infection.?
We are funding research searching for effective treatments to fight this infection, giving hope to families like Ella's.?
Please give what you can now. Any gift large or small will help us get closer to this important target.??
Please help us continue to fund research for vulnerable children
With your help we can fight back and save and change children's lives - now and always.?
Yours sincerely,
Julie Buckler?
Chief Executive, Action Medical Research

New research: protecting against peanut allergy
We're delighted to be funding new research for children with peanut allergy - a condition that has been increasing in recent decades. A new type of treatment,?called oral immunotherapy,?can help. But not all children can tolerate its current form. Dr Sharanya Nagendran will test an alternative approach. She hopes to boost the safety and long-term effectiveness of treatment, helping more families live without fear of a life-threatening reaction.

Sophie''s amazing transformation
Sophie''s hard-to-treat epilepsy made her incredibly vulnerable and an independent, seizure-free future looked unlikely. But thanks to successful treatment, using a procedure developed and refined by funding from Action, Sophie is now at university and living life to the full. Last year she travelled to 30 different countries, both solo and with friends, showing just how life-changing her treatment has been.

Fighting spinal muscular atrophy
Sophia and her parents are self-isolating against COVID-19, as even a simple cold can see her in need of emergency hospital care. Sophia has spinal muscular atrophy type 1, which leads to loss of movement and muscle wasting, and can also make breathing difficult. Action is funding research that hopes to add to emerging treatment strategies for this devastating and life-limiting rare disease - we cannot do this without your help. Please donate if you can.
