About the charity
Nikki Lilly Christou is just 18 and suffers from a very rare condition called an AVM (Arterio-Vascular malformation) and has had over 100 operations since she was only 6 years old.
This has not stopped the inspirational Nikki winning countless awards (BAFTA/Pride of Britain) and is also a social media icon to young people amassing millions of followers.
Despite her health issues, she founded The Butterfly AVM Charity to help raise awareness, support sufferers and their families.
The money raised is used to fund research. We help maximise results by not just donating, but by specifically employing researchers and PhD Students and paying for specific equipment that is vital to their work. Our amazing researchers work in conjunction with Great Ormond Street Hospital, University College of London, Royal Free Hospital and the Francis Crick Institute. Their aim is to breakdown the boundaries using cutting edge research and the provide the help that is needed to understand the genetic structure of AVMs and search for definitive treatments and one day the cure we long to find.
