Prader Willi Syndrome Support Group Cause

We are a Support Group run by parents for people with Prader-Willi Syndrome. Prader-Willi Syndrome (PWS) is a genetic condition caused as a result of a small piece of missing information from the paternal chromosome 15 which affects the hypothalamus in the brain. This causes the person with PWS to have an obsession with food and an insatiable drive to eat.  They are also challenged by having low muscle tone and developmental delays, learning difficulties, behavioural and social challenges, emotional instability and lack of maturity.
