Funding research and educating the patient and the professional


“Total fatigue. Brain fog. Pain dis- missed as ‘nothing’.” For years, one patient lived with unexplained symp- toms until fi nally being diagnosed with Sjögren’s disease, a systemic autoimmune condition that aff ects thousands in the UK. Like many, they feel isolated, battle


daily fatigue and dryness, recurrent infections and the frustration of not being believed. But through Sjögren’s UK, they fi nd information, recog- nition and a community that truly understands them. Sjögren’s UK is the only UK char-


ity dedicated to this overlooked condition.


It provides support


through its helpline, forums and local groups, while funding research that gives patients hope for the future. T is Christmas, your donation can


bring warmth, comfort and connec- tion to people living with Sjögren’s disease. Together, we can ensure no one faces this invisible illness alone.

Reunite children with their parents this winter


Taliban persecution tore these two sisters away from their fa- ther for 10 years. After a decade apart, they’re fi nally safe and together again. But today, the government’s sus-


pension of refugee family reunion is preventing other children like them from being reunited with their par- ents. Lack of action now may lead to more families that have already lost everything to war and brutal regimes spending this winter apart and stuck in danger. Your support to Safe Passage In-


ternational — a dedicated family reunion charity in the UK — can help these children to be safe and with those who love them most. By making a donation today, you


will fund expert legal and social support for child refugees, bringing families back together to safety and campaigning for their rights.
