Sickle Cell Disease is important knowing the signs save lives. The haemoglobinopathy CNS team NUH are committed to bring change☺️

















What a fabulous idea! @SFHFT

#SickleCellAwarenessMonth D28 After 100 years of inactivity, we’re FINALLY in a time when we have new therapies being developed Potential cures like #GeneTherapy and many other drugs in development This is exciting but we need to be sure new treatments accessible & affordable

We cannot talk about #SickleCelllAwareness without talking about #VoluntaryBloodDonation. Both go hand in hand. #Blood is something that sickle cell warriors like me depend heavily on. The bag I'm holding contains the amount of blood I have exchanged every 5 weeks. Please if you



#SickleCellAwarenessMonth D27 I still hear the word sickler and it needs to stop I don’t care if you’ve always used it or if you don’t mean it in a bad way. It’s a slur, it’s dehumanizing and patients hate it. I hate it. Don’t use it and correct those that do




Let's keep the flag flying in RED @TeamNUH @NUHInstitute @NUHNursing @haemSCD @nottmhospitals






Half of the people living with #SCD over age 50 have suffered permanent damage to at least one organ. Pain crises + complications tend to be more severe. Stress, vision loss, bone health, pain, and other chronic complications must be regularly assessed. #sciklecellawareness

I'm really grateful for all blood donors and I had the opportunity to say it again on @bbcemt today. Thank you @GiveBloodNHS for the opportunity to join the call for blood donors this Christmas. #giveblood #dosomethingamazing #givebloodsavelives #sicklecellconvos

NUH turns red at night to support sickle cell awareness month
