Our Cork Patient Information event ‘Understanding Haemochromatosis’ with Professor Diarmaid Houlihan, took place on Tuesday 28th November 2023 at the Clayton Hotel Cork City. Professor Houlihan is a Consultant Gastroenterologist working in the Bon Secours in Cork.
We welcomed patients, their families and those who wanted to find out more about haemochromatosis. Thank you to everyone who attended on the night and participated in a very engaging and informative Question & Answer session with Diarmaid, our voluntary Board Member, Frank McHugh and long-time campaigner and advocate for haemochromatosis, Cllr Damian Boylan who also spoke about his own haemochromatosis journey.
Your membership of the IHA makes us stronger and gives us a collective voice to advocate on behalf of our members, patients and their families. At this time of year, we encourage all our members to renew your annual membership and continue to be part of our 1,000 strong community!
Wear your Christmas jumper to support the work of the Irish Haemochromatosis Association OR make a gift of a donation big or small this holiday season to ensure that patients in Ireland get the help and support they need.
Thank you to all the Donegal community who came out in great numbers to attend our recent Patient Information evening in the Clanree Hotel in Letterkenny, Co Donegal. Over 120 people, some who travelled long distances, joined us on the night to hear Dr. Paul Grant’s talk and presentation on haemochromatosis.
