Why donate to us?

Help strengthen our collective voice. Since 2005, our campaigning has made a massive difference to the way patients are treated now. But there is still more to do. We are a small voluntary charity so we depend on your donations to carry on working for you and making your voice heard.

Help us to educate GPs and Endocrinologists about our conditions. Your support enables us to work with our specialists to produce information, promote research and attend conferences where we raise awareness to the medical profession about parathyroid conditions and best practice management.

Help us to help parathyroid patients and their families
We provide support and information for patients of all ages via our widely praised website, telephone helpline, award winning leaflets and our online and local groups. All this is done by a small group of committed volunteers so that patients no longer feel alone or uninformed.
