Story

Lupus is a condition where the body's immune system mistakenly attacks healthy parts of the body, affecting the joints, skin, kidneys and organs. We are Lupus UK, the national charity for lupus, and we've been supporting the lupus community for 35 years and counting!

Our theme for Lupus Awareness Month this year is #MoreThanADiagnosis, highlighting the many ways lupus can affect life beyond health and diagnosis. Lupus can impact work, education, finances, and wellbeing, with experiences varying significantly from person to person. Throughout the month, we are sharing stories, information and support across our social media channels to raise awareness and highlight the wider impact of living with lupus.

By supporting Lupus UK through fundraising, you are helping to fund vital support and research for people living with lupus.

A small donation can go a long way! You can find plenty of fundraising ideas by visiting our website: https://lupusuk.org.uk/fundraising-for-lupus-uk/
