Delight at donation for lupus sufferers

LUPUS patients in West Norfolk will benefit from a £1,000 donation from the Sandringham Lodge of the Buffaloes.

Lupus is a rare and incurable condition in which the body's defence mechanism starts to attack itself.

Symptoms are varied but the most common symptoms include skin rashes, joint pains and profound fatigue.
Women with lupus outnumber men by nine to one.

The Lynn area spokesman for Lupus UK, Mrs Elizabeth Barrett, said: "People with lupus will be delighted with the donation.

"The illness doesn't often get a mention in the news and it's even rarer for anyone to raise money for lupus patients. We are so grateful."

Consultant rheumatologist Dr John Williams, of Queen Elizabeth Hospital, said the donation would be used in three ways.

Further training would be provided to improve the expertise of a specialist rheumatology nurse who was developing an interest in lupus and related conditions.

"We will be increasing our own professional resources in terms of specialist books and journals on lupus and related conditions," he went on.

Information videos and literature would also be bought for a patient eduction area.
* Lupus patients can contact Mrs Barrett on 01553 617754.
