NATIONAL AND REGIONAL PATRONS The charitys National Patrons and Patrons of the Regional Groups are appointed to help further the work of LUPUS UK. Patrons can be from all walks of life, including doctors, politicians, stars of film, stage and TV and may also be drawn from other quarters.
LUPUS UK CONTACTS LUPUS UK maintains a register of more than one hundred lupus Contacts located across the UK, the majority of whom have had lupus for some years. Their advisory role for fellow patients and those seeking diagnosis is seen as an extremely valuable part of the charitys support function and LUPUS UK remains continually grateful to its Contacts for the work they undertake.
If you would like to speak to a Contact, please ring National Office on 01708 731251 and we will be able to give you the telephone number of your local Contact.
