Regional Branches
The Irish Haemochromatosis Association is keen to establish regional branches of the Association. As the number being diagnosed increases due to genetic testing and greater awareness, it is vital to have support close at hand if it is required.
Furthermore, regional branches are also a necessary means of increasing awareness of Haemochromatosis amongst the medical profession and the public at large.
If you are interested in forming a branch in your area please contact info@haemochromatosis-ir.com or phone 01 873 5911.
