Our focus is to educate doctors, health professionals and the public about Lipoedema and its symptoms, so it may be diagnosed and treated earlier. Because Lipoedema is frequently mistaken for obesity or Lymphoedema, many women don’t get appropriate advice or treatment – a state of affairs we are on a mission to change.

Our belief is that with earlier diagnosis and treatment women can prevent developing further complications and manage their Lipoedema. We also provide information about Lipoedema to our members and health professionals, report on research findings and commission our own research.
