What DNA did in September 2024 to raise awareness
  • During September 2024 DNA held a ‘Dance for Dystonia’ competition. See all our wonderful entries here
  • We also produced some informative videos and Q & A interviews with interesting people working in various dystonia fields
  • We ran our 30 second awareness ad on as many local and community radio stations as we could
  • We ensured neurologists’ rooms are stocked with DNA brochures
  • We held a Zoom get together for our members
  • Some of our members attended dystonia meet ups and lunches
  • We asked that you display our awareness posters below in workplaces, shopping centres, libraries, community centres and on social media. The posters are available for saving and printing here – Orange poster, Portrait poster white background, Landscape poster white background.
  • We have previously held booths at hospitals to raise awareness however this was impacted by Covid-19
  • We have also previously conducted yearly seminars with Australian and international speakers and people with dystonia
