Welcome to the Dorset Lupus Group's web site

We are the smallest group within the charity helping those sufferers in and close to Dorset. Our group is made up of about 90 members, the majority of whom suffer with Lupus in its many forms.

We have monthly events where everyone is welcome, and we encourage family and friends to come along. Our contacts service is available to everyone; to talk about anything that concerns you. Lupus is rarely understood by others around us and sometimes it is nice to talk to someone who understands. We also offer a Buddy service whereby another member will come to your hospital appointment with you, to offer support and a second pair of ears, to take in the complexities of what is being told to you. This is completely confidential. We also have a Library with many books about Lupus and the service is free to all our members.

Our aim is to help, as friends and fellow sufferers. We are not medically trained but have the best training ever, we are going through the same frustrations as you, so give us call, or come along and meet some new friends.
