So exciting to see the new DCD Belgium website go live 🇧🇪🎈.

Incredibly proud of the Impact for DCD team. Findings from Australia, Canada, US, UK, Belgium and Sweden were presented @DCD15_IMDRC6…and there’s more to come. Together we are working hard to raise awareness and improve support for people with DCD around the world 🌎 🎈
