About Sickle Cell & Thalassaemia Support Project
The Sickle Cell and Thalassaemia Support Project was established in 1990 to address health inequalities in service provision to those families in Wolverhampton affected by sickle cell disease or thalassaemia.
The project has been addressing these issues since then, including issues that emerge from the community it seeks to serve.
Here at Sickle Cell and Thalassaemia Support Project, we aim to:
- Work closely with the NHS and other partners by helping with the screening and counselling of those at risk or affected by sickle cell or thalassaemia- NHS Sickle Cell and Thalassaemia Screening Programme
- Increase awareness by developing a comprehensive education and training programme for community groups, carers and health professionals
- Offer support, advice and coordination of care to individuals and families where there is a major haemoglobin disorder
- Act as a specialist resource for other professionals and communities at risk
- Work closely with the statutory, voluntary and community sectors to develop a coordinated service
