This statistic highlights the importance of raising awareness of all year round, particularly on and throughout .

Raising awareness can empower individuals to recognise symptoms and seek medical advice sooner. It also helps reduce stigma and encourages more research and support for those living with lupus.

If you live with lupus, had you heard of it before your diagnosis?
