You were a truly extraordinary Valiant! 🏅
You covered the 6km with courage, determination and admirable strength 💪✨. We are so proud of you 🧡.

Meanwhile, your friend Alice was more on the entertainment side 🎶💃: her love for music and dance took over.
These magical moments were made possible thanks to the Rare Diseases Alliance , the volunteers and all the wonderful energy present.

Alice also had the chance to go to the set of the #Telethon in the evening, alongside the walkers of the Rare Diseases Walk.

RARE DISEASES WALK - TELETHON 2024

Thank you Adele! 🩷💙💚

You were a champion at the Rare Diseases Walk this Saturday, November 30.

It was a pleasure to walk with you, Hélène, Simon, and Marie-Céline, to meet friends, acquaintances and to make lots of others!

We will remember Alex, Clémence, Lucas, the super nice ladies who explained and let you try out their wheelchair, the bus to rest... the smiles, the shared dances, the pretty Blue, Pink and Green colors of rare diseases...

Alice thanks you for the balloon you gave her, which crossed Paris, took the metro and the train to end up in her room in Rouen. 🧡

Thanks to the Rare Diseases Alliance and AFM-Telethon for these suspended moments.

Thank you to you, the Vaillants and friends of the Vaillants, for being with us from afar with your "likes" and your messages!

Thanks to Marie-Céline Pestrinaux from Epilepsie France for sharing this walk with us

Thank you to the Groupama Foundation for walking with rare diseases, it was a pleasure to meet you.

National Congress of the Rare Diseases Alliance 2023

The challenges of the 4th National Plan for Rare Diseases (PNMR)

GOING FURTHER 
Since the launch of the PNMR3, strong measures have been taken to reduce the number of people with rare diseases who are left without a diagnosis.
These measures still need to be consolidated in a fourth national plan for rare diseases.
It will also be a question of using new measures to go even further in this area of diagnosis, as well as improving access to treatments for rare diseases and to biotherapies by reinforcing the collection of health data and biobanks.
(extract "Towards a fourth national plan for rare diseases (PNMR4): for greater synergies between care and research", Ministry of Higher Education and Research - 28/02/2023). You can consult the full press release with the assessment of the previous NRDPs by clicking on the underlined words.

Annual Scientific Conference
Rare Diseases Foundation

Collège de France - May 31, 2022

We had the pleasure of attending this conference where medical and health sciences rubbed shoulders with human and social sciences.

Needless to say, it was rewarding!

 

We invite you to connect to the YouTube channel of the Rare Diseases Foundation for a replay of the subjects which could interest you (reminder of the program ).

 

Following issues raised by certain families, we would like to refer you more specifically to an article on the complexity of monitoring patients in the transition from pediatrics to "adult" monitoring:

- " Between medical transition and passage to adulthood, a possible conflict of temporality for young people suffering from a chronic illness "
