Migraine affects 8 million people in the UK<br />
Migraine is the UK’s most common long term<br />
neurological condition, costing an estimated 3<br />
billion pounds every year. For the last 40 years<br />
The Migraine Trust has funded vital research<br />
into the condition and supported sufferers and<br />
their families.<br />
The Migraine Trust provides essential,<br />
evidence-based information to those affected<br />
by migraine. We have fact sheets on migraine<br />
and related issues. We also run a website, an<br />
information and enquiry service, an advocacy<br />
service and practical workshops to support<br />
migraineurs and their families.<br />
Medical professionals already tell us how<br />
much they and their patients value the service<br />
we provide.<br />
The Migraine Trust funds research into<br />
migraine and disabling headache – in fact<br />
Together we can beat it<br />
we’ve invested £3 million in 130 research<br />
projects since we began. We also subsidise<br />
headache and migraine courses for nurses<br />
and other healthcare professionals.<br />
We are a charity that receives no Government<br />
funding in battling this widespread condition.<br />
We rely solely on donations.<br />
