Awareness!

How many times have you been asked – “what condition do you have” – only to receive a completely blank expression and the words “haven’t heard of that one!” when you tell them! 

Even worse than that - what about when it  happens when you’re at the doctors or at your neurologist’s clinic! 

Awareness is important! 

Wouldn’t it be wonderful if everyone – not just the medical profession – knew what Charcot-Marie-Tooth Disease is, like they do for other, rarer, conditions like Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy or Motor Neurone Disease.

 You can download this A4 poster as a .pdf from here.  Please feel free to print off and distribute as much as you can.   If you'd like pre-printed copies - to save your ink - please email the office at the usual address. 

We can only achieve this goal with your help.  On this page, you’ll find printable posters and a hand-out leaflet detailing CMT United Kingdom’s services.  Why not either print some yourself, or request some from the office, and distribute them to your GP’s surgery, and to any others within your area?  And don’t forget your local hospital’s out-patients department, Citizens Advice Bureau, library or any other suitable public spot!

We can also provide copies of our leaflets for distribution – and if you can think of any other ways of making the point, please do

 let us know.  Unfortunately, our resources don’t run to massive advertising campaigns in the national press, but perhaps your local press might be interested – particularly if you organise an event on behalf of CMT United Kingdom.
