About Sickle Cell Society
The Sickle Cell Society is a leading charity based in the UK dedicated to supporting individuals affected by sickle cell disease. Established in 1979, our mission is to improve the quality of life for those living with this condition and to raise awareness about its impact on patients and their families.
We provide a range of services including advice and support, advocacy, and education. Our team works tirelessly to ensure that patients receive the best possible care and treatment. We also engage in research initiatives aimed at finding better treatments and ultimately a cure for sickle cell disease.
Our vision is to create a world where sickle cell disease is no longer a barrier to living a full and healthy life. We strive to empower patients through information and resources, helping them navigate the complexities of their condition.
Through community outreach programs, we aim to educate the public and healthcare professionals about sickle cell disease, fostering understanding and compassion. We also collaborate with other organizations and stakeholders to advocate for policy changes that benefit those affected by the disease.
At the Sickle Cell Society, we believe in the importance of community and support. We offer various support groups and events that allow individuals and families to connect, share experiences, and find solace in knowing they are not alone in their journey.
Join us in our mission to transform the lives of those affected by sickle cell disease. Together, we can make a difference.
