Fragile X Awareness Day
22nd July 2010

Fragile X Awareness Day on July 22nd is to promote the awareness of Fragile X syndrome. The incidence of Fragile X can be significantly reduced through awareness and early intervention assists in providing support and strategies to
help improve the quality of life of a Fragile X child. In Australia, it is estimated that one child every week is born with Fragile X and twelve are born carriers.

Please support the Fragile X Association of Australia through Fragile X Awareness Day by holding morning teas, having sausage sizzles or just talking about Fragile X syndrome to your family, friends and colleagues.  Fragile X Awareness events can be held throughout July.

If you are holding an event please contact the Fragile X Association on 1300 FX INFO (1300 394 636) for information on fundraising.  We have posters available that were designed by RU Advertising and printed by Sydney IVF.  Also we have pens and ribbons for sale for $2. Just contact Jocelyn or Bernadette at the office to order your supplies.
