Welcome to the home of the Northamptonshire Lupus Group.  We are a regional branch of the national charity LUPUS UK.


This is a new group which began with an inaugural meeting on 16th September 2009.  The purpose of the group is to create a network of lupus sufferers and carers in Northamptonshire who get to know each other and meet regularly to share experiences and ideas in respect of ‘living with lupus’.  There have been 3 group meetings so far and all were very well attended.  It is intended to hold 3 meetings a year, Spring, Summer and Autumn.


We need to work to raise the awareness of lupus both in the county and throughout the UK.  It is astonishing how few people have heard of this disease and that includes some doctors and nurses!


As you will see further into the web site, we have had good results in respect of fund raising in our region.  We need fresh ideas and initiatives to raise more for the various research and nurses supported by LUPUS UK.  If you wish to organise or sponsor an event or feel that you can help in any way please contact me.  I will be very pleased to discuss your ideas. 


I hope you find our web site to be interesting and informative.
