At our Annual General Meeting in 2009 John Olsen agreed to become an Ambassador for the ALDS. John has already expressed his heart and soul committment to our group through the marathon 'Longest Walk for an Aussie Kid'. We know that John will continue to do all that he can to support and encourage our endeavours over the course of his time as Ambassador. Thank you most sincerely John for continuing to work on our behalf. We look forward to the many occasions when we can share our work together.

The ALDS plays an important role in supporting those affected by Leukodystrophy which is a group of rare genetic disorders that affect the central nervous system. In most instances, these disorders are progressive and symptoms often include loss of muscle tone, blindness and other debilitating factors. Unfortunately at this stage there is no cure for this cruel genetic condition, although research into Leukodystrophy continues.
