Our Mission
Our mission has three main elements:
- Supporting:
We seek to raise awareness of genetic conditions and improve the quality of services and information available to patients and families. - Campaigning:
We actively campaign on behalf of those with genetic conditions on issues of policy and practice to influence governments, policy makers, industry and care providers such as the National Health Service. - Uniting:
We provide a united voice for all those affected by genetic conditions, enabling us to work together towards a common goal of making life better for patients and families at risk.
