The British Thyroid Foundation provides information and support to help people better understand and manage their thyroid condition. We also fund and support vital research to improve treatments and outcomes for thyroid patients both now and in the future.

Story

I’ve recently been diagnosed with Graves Disease and have since undergone a Total Thyroidectomy. This is a life long disease that I knew nothing about before being diagnosed. I’m doing this to challenge myself, motivate myself to get back to the fitness I had before my diagnosis and spread awareness of this rare disease!

Being diagnosed and living with a thyroid disorder can have a big impact on your life. But you are not on your own. We're here to support you and the thousands of people across the UK living with thyroid disorders.

We work with medical professionals so our information is reliable and evidence based. We fund vital research into thyroid disease. Our telephone contacts and Facebook groups offer peer support and our local groups support you in your local community. We rely on donations and fundraising to continue our work.
