medicine and therapies and research in relation to a large number of disabilities and
disorders. Our data has been gathered from a very wide range of sources and is presented

How can the Resource Centre help?
Whatever the diagnosis (or even if there is no diagnosis) we hope to offer useful, detailed information
which it may be difficult to source anywhere else. If you need a fuller picture of a condition, the names
of possible treatment centres, the latest research on nutritional medicine, information about new drugs or
suggestions for complementary therapies or the names of organisations which can help you further - simply ask
us for information.
Where is the Resource Centre?
Our office is in central London but our service is available nationwide and internationally.
