Andrew Marlow's Home Page

Brenda, my wife, suffers from lupus. I managed to find information about her condition from a mailing list that I got via the list of lists. In those days there were no lupus web sites. Thankfully, there are now. However, until very recently there was little information available on the 'net for those of us that live in the UK, where there is little public awareness of lupus.

European Lupus Erythematosus Federation

At the end of 1987 Eric Howard, former Director of Lupus UK, invited the national organisations of Lupus Groups from 8 European countries to a meeting in London. In April 1988 this meeting took place in London and the delegates of the Lupus Groups from the following countries took part: Belgium, Finland, France, Germany, Ireland, the Netherlands, Switzerland, United Kingdom.
The idea of this meeting was to get to know each other, to exchange experiences, and to learn from each other.
