Over the years, vasculitis support organisations have been established around the world. Some are large national charities, others are small patient-led groups — but all share the same mission: to support people living with vasculitis in their own countries.
To explore support organisations beyond the UK, we recommend visiting Vasculitis International, the global umbrella network for Vasculitis Patient Advocacy Groups (VPAGs) and expert centres.
Vasculitis International
Vasculitis International brings together vasculitis patient organisations and medical expertise from countries across the globe.
Through its online directory, you can:
- Browse patient organisations by country
- Explore groups by vasculitis type
- Learn about expert hospitals and clinical centres
- Access support options where no local group yet exists
