17 April marks World Haemophilia Day

Our last interview was with Sister Anne-Louise Cruickshank - Western Cape Haemophilia foundation Coordinator. Haemophilia is a rare inherited disorder that leads to abnormal bleeding, and specifically the inability to stop bleeding. On Saturday, 17 April is the World Haemophilia Day so Sister Cruickshank told us more about Haemophilia and some of the awareness events they have planned for the day. For more on Haemophilia you can contact the South African Haemophilia Foundation at (021) 785 7140 or www.haemophilia.org.za alternatively you can visit www.wfh.org
