Events
FUNCATION days
In association with the Haemophilia Society we organise a series of FUNCATION days throughout the country for patients living with haemophilia. These fun and educational days have proven to be a great success. They include a variety of interactive sessions such as:
- The facts on fitness - from an experienced physio 'Know your joints' – from a specialist haemophilia nurse
- 'Infusion Confusion' with local haemophilia nurses
World Haemophilia Day
In association with the Haemophilia Society we organise an annual event celebrating World Haemophilia Day on the 18th April
'Inspire days'
Inspire is an intimate, relaxed event for 50+ adults with haemophilia organised and sponsored by Bayer HealthCare and supported by the Haemophilia Society.
It's designed to bring people with haemophilia together to talk about the aspects of the condition that are particularly relevant to this age group.
Some of the UK's top haemophilia healthcare professionals are invited to give short, informative talks, after which refreshments will be served and speakers will remain available to take any questions while guests mingle.
To find out more about these events contact The Haemophilia Society by clicking here or see if there is one coming up soon by checking the news and events page.
