UKTS Making a Difference

Working together to create a better world

Facts about thalassaemia.

Informational videos and stories from our members and their families about what life is really like with thalassaemia

Global Creative Art Competition 2023

This years theme is Fantasy & Fairy Tales

We learn from the characters in stories, even as adults. They help us because we connect to our own lives, dreams, anxieties, and consider what we would do in their shoes. Not only do they help us all to learn how to navigate life and build emotional resilience, it also crosses cultures and unites us all on a global level.
