The Croydon Sickle Cell and Thalassaemia Support Group is a registered charity based in Croydon, London in the county of Surrey. Our members include individuals affected with Sickle Cell and Thalassaemia, their families, carers, supporters and professionals. In 1998, the Sickle cell centre was opened for the specialist nurses. Our support group moved in with the nurses and since that time it has built up a very good working relationship and has gained an outstanding reputation with the borough. Our support group became a Registered Charitable organisation in September 2003.
The main aim of our efforts is to help improve the quality of life for affected individuals, their families and carers. We also promote awareness of sickle cell and thalassaemia in the community. There are a number of fundraising events to raise funds for our activities with both the young and older affected individuals. Our group has consistently strove to achieve and remain focused on the objectives set out in our constitution.
