Rare Disease Forum-Partnering to Advance the Rare Disease Agenda
Health Research Charities Ireland along with Rare Disease Ireland, Cystic Fibrosis Ireland, IPPOSI and the Northern Ireland Rare Disease Partnership have come together to form The Rare Disease Forum. This is a public and patient involvement initiative for Ireland, North and South, which calls for coordinated action to improve the health and social care needs of those living with a rare disease.
The Forum has evolved from the Irish Rare Disease Taskforce, and its aim is to broaden the conversation further and host events to tackle the big issues around rare diseases.
The next event is titled Partnering to Advance the Rare Disease Agenda.
It will feature a panel of speakers with perspectives from patients, policymakers, & health researchers and is taking place online on Monday 28th November at 6.30pm. Registration is essential – you can click here to secure your spot.

We hope to see you online on the 28th!
