Only 1 month to go... 👉

Only one month to go until World Haemophilia Day! Make sure you’ve got 17 April saved in your calendar.

This year’s theme is ‘Diagnosis: First step to care’. The WFH estimates that over three quarters of the population of people with haemophilia worldwide are undiagnosed, and an even more significant gap also exists for other bleeding disorders.

This means that hundreds of thousands of people with bleeding disorders around the world still lack access to basic care.

In particular, women and girls with bleeding disorders still face many challenges to receiving a diagnosis, delaying their access to treatment and care.

Our Story

HFQ is is a patient advocacy and support organisation working to improve the lives of people affected by haemophilia and other bleeding disorders. We run annual camps for young people, coming to terms with a bleeding disorder in their family or themselves; and a community camp to provide a safe space for education, discussion ...and fun. We also offer meetings and peer support opportunities. HFQ operates as a not for profit organisation run by a board of management and its effectiveness is dependent upon the goodwill of many volunteers which includes people affected personally by bleeding disorders and representatives of governments, health sector and industry who may also contribute their skills, knowledge and time to achieve common goals. The day to day operations of the Foundation are managed by the coordinator, from the office in Brisbane.
