40 Years of the Sickle Cell Society

40 Years of the Sickle Cell Society

The Sickle Cell Society is celebrating its 40th Anniversary this year. First set up as a registered charity in 1979, the Society was formed by a group of patients, parents and health professionals who were all concerned about the lack of understanding and the inadequacy of treatment for people living with sickle cell disorders.

Below is a timeline highlighting our top 40 highlights from the last 40 years. For more 40th Anniversary news visit www.sicklecellsociety.org/scs40/
