Story
Behçets (pronounced Bet-Jets), also known as Behçets Disease or Behçets Syndrome is a rare, complex and lifelong condition resulting from disturbances in the body's immune system. Symptoms, which can be debilitating, occur wherever there is a patch of inflammation; this can be anywhere where there is a blood supply from the brain down to the feet.
Behçets UK represents and supports all Behçets patients in the UK including those yet to be diagnosed. We promote and fund research into the condition and our ultimate aim is to find a cure but in the meantime, We strive to secure the best care for all Behçets patients and assist their carers, parents, and relatives.
We don't receive any government funding so rely on generous donations from our members and supporters to continue to provide our services and deliver our aims.
