Sarcoidosis is a rare disease and has poor information, support and little research for finding a cure. We work to change that. Our 4 goals; information, support, awareness and research. We receive no government money and are 100% reliant on your generosity. Any donation makes a huge difference.

Story

SarcoidosisUK is a tiny charity that exists to provide support and information for people with sarcoidosis, and to fund research into a cure for the condition. It is currently the among the world’s largest sarcoidosis research funders, and is passionate about helping to find a cure. SarcoidosisUK is dedicated to funding at least one major piece of research per year, and will continue to do this until a cure is found. Please donate - we rely on your support to keep going!

October 2017 I was admitted in to hospital, with inflammation in my Brain, lower back, eyes,skin and chest (lungs /Lymph nodes) after 6weeks I was diagnosed with Neurosarcoidosis 

Many of you would know, my treatment has been high steroids for 16months, oral chemotherapy drugs to intravenous chemotherapy for the last 6 months... with my last cycle number 8 at the end of April... we currently do not have a clear plan as the Medication isn’t currently working. 


What is Sarcoidosis?


•Around one in 10,000 people in the uk suffer from Sarcoidosis and only about 10-15% will have neurological involvement


•No known cause or Cure

•Symptoms depends on organ affected •Fatal in 5% of cases - usually cardiac and neurological involvement 


There is currently no cure, but the amazing team at SarcoidosisUK are always at hand to offer support and information to anyone affected by the disease. They receive no government support and rely on fundraising.




The difference you can help by donating


£100 could pay for a SarcoidosisUK nurse helpline for x2 weeks


£500 could fund a SarcoidosisUK support group for 18 months


The thought of running walking 5k is daunting.. when I was in hospital I become paralysed. And it’s been hard work to get back to some sort of normal. 

Please help we raise some money for a group of people who have really been on hand to support me though the toughest 1.5 years.
