Sometimes certain situations can be tough, such as awaiting test results or being newly diagnosed, which is why talking to someone can help reduce any worries or anxiety you may have.

LUPUS UK is able to support you, your family and friends through our

• Trained telephone contacts
• HealthUnlocked community forum
• Regional groups

Lupus UK Contacts

CONTACTS

We have trained volunteers, called Contacts, who either have lupus themselves or have a family member with the condition. You can chat with our Contacts over the telephone. They are not medically trained but are there to offer both emotional and general support and signpost you to someone who can advise you. The telephone service is confidential, and you can disclose as much as you wish. The support service is free apart from the cost of the call.

Regional Groups

Regional Groups

We have over 20 Regional Groups across the country supporting our members and those yet to be diagnosed. Our groups send out information leaflets, hold regular meetings and generally give support to others who sometimes just need someone to talk to. All of our groups are run by volunteers who give their spare time to the charity in helping others.
