Connecting Fanconi Anemia Patients and Professionals across Europe
Welcome to FA Europe!
FA Europe is an initiative of Fanconi Hope in the UK and the Fanconi Anemie Werkgroep of the VOKK Nederland. It is an umbrella organisation connecting patient support groups, clinicians, scientists and FA patient representatives from across Europe, whose collective voice, reach and influence should be greater than that of the individual organisations. We want all European countries to have the opportunity to be involved in the management and running of the organisation.
- Our Vision: Equal access to optimised care for people across Europe affected by Fanconi Anemia.
- Our Mission: We aim to achieve this by connecting FA patients, doctors and scientists across Europe and acting as a facilitator for education and communication, fundraising, research collaboration and sharing of best practices and infrastructure.
Please help us to improve the lives of people living with Fanconi Anemia by making a donation to the FA Europe Network
