I was happy to be a part of the Annual Sickle Cell Gala last night at the Hilton Birmingham Metropole. Raising awareness for the Sickle Cell disease.
A very serious and underrepresented disease affecting mainly the black & asian community. Whereby the delivery system of Oxygen is interferred with, so it struggles to get to the vital tissues within the body. This can cause serious pain and death of those affected.
So when asked to provide GALA in light up letters, i was very happy to do so, to help highlight this very much aligned disease.
If you would like more information or to help support Sickle Cell awareness or those affected by it see www.myfriendjen.co.uk
