We Are Fanconi Hope

We are a registered national charitable trust set up by parents of Fanconi Anaemia (FA) affected children and clinicians with an interest in FA.

Fanconi Anaemia (FA) is a rare, life-limiting genetic disorder causing bone marrow failure in children and a predisposition to gynaecological, head and neck cancers, together with other complications both in childhood and in later life.

Our Work

Although the charity is small and staffed by volunteers in their spare time, Fanconi Hope has been able to make significant progress in a number of areas:

  • Raising Awareness
  • Bringing Families Together
  • Promoting Research
  • Bringing Clinicians Together to Share Best Practice

£275,000+

£164,000+

in Sponsored Research Projects

Fanconi Hope is currently fundraising to prolong a 3 year Study into the Long term Effects of Fanconi Anaemia which is being led by Manchester University and wholly funded by Fanconi Hope.

This study funds a UK FA Coordinator, Beth Lee, who will create and maintain a patient-led UK National Patient Registry in order to improve patient care and facilitate research. The Coordinator acts as a point of contact for patients & families, and clinicians & researchers.

Please help us achieve this with donations large or small.

"I believe that we have already shown that this is possible but as the parent of a child with FA and as Chairman of Fanconi Hope I will not rest whilst there is the opportunity for improved treatment for all and ultimately, a cure."~ Bob Dalgleish, Chairman (Fanconi Hope)
