I’m raising money for The Haemophilia Society as this is a brilliant organisation that campaigns for and demands excellent care and safe, effective treatment for all.
My husband Adam has lived with Severe Haemophilia A all his life and has been supported by this organisation from newly diagnosed to the present day.
The Haemophilia Society (THS) is the only UK-wide charity for everyone affected by a genetic bleeding disorder. They are free to join and have more than 5,000 members.
One in 2,000 people in the UK have a diagnosed bleeding disorder, including conditions such as haemophilia and von Willebrand disorder, that result when the blood cannot clot properly. As many as a third of bleeding disorder diagnoses have no known family history, which means a diagnosis can come completely out of the blue.
THS campaign for what matters to their members and will continue to fight for the care and treatment those living with bleeding disorders need.
