Contact’s Rare Conditions Network

2 mins read

Thanks to funding from the Pears Foundation, we have established a Rare Conditions Network.

If you run a rare condition support group, join our network and get access to exclusive news, advice, events and development opportunities to help you support your families.

Our Rare Conditions Network brings rare condition support groups together to share ideas and expertise and strengthen group relationships.

About our network

We know how important support groups are to families – Contact itself started as a support group.

And rare condition support groups – which can be an invaluable source of condition-specific information and support – are very often a lifeline for families.

Our Rare Conditions Network brings these groups together to share ideas and expertise and strengthen group relationships.

Join our network
