Site Summary: We are a non-profit organisation, dedicated to providing free information and free psychological support for those affected by systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), lupus variant and Hughes' (the antiphospholipid antibody) Syndrome. Carers and health professionals are also encouraged to access information and support.

From 1998 to 2003, we were supported by Dr Graham Hughes MD FRCP, Head of the Lupus Unit at St Thomas' Hospital, London.
We are also engaged in on-going research into the psychological needs of all those affected or concern with SLE.

A UK website devoted to meeting the unmet needs of those affected by SLE and related diseases. However, members from other countries are also welcomed. As a non-profit organisation, we do not ask for any subscription.

Our uniqueness lies in the provision of psychological support and on going research to serve the needs of patients, carers, families and health professionals.
