Story

Living with a rare chronic condition, Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS), can turn your world upside down. Burning Nights CRPS Support is an independent UK charity dedicated to not only raising awareness for this debilitating & life-changing condition but to also support anyone who’s lives have been affected by it.We are here to support CRPS patients & their families, friends & carers with our frontline services.Raising awareness of CRPS is crucial to get patients diagnosed quicker & treatment started sooner, to give a better prognosis.

As a Solicitor I specialise in acting for clients who develop CRPS following injury. I see far too many people who have struggled to get an early diagnosis. Access to early treatment is vital. As part of a legal case funding for treatment can usually be obtained from the party responsible for the accident but there are many who do not have a legal claim or private insurance who struggle to access the treatment. Sufferers of CRPS can often feel alone and bewildered and in excruciating pain. It is sadly known as the suicide disease because of the effect it can have on mental health. The help and support and counselling Burning Nights can offer sufferers and their families is vital and a lifeline to many. They are a small charity with a huge outreach and demands on their support and would be so grateful for any donations to the charity
