Mission, Vision and Values
PoTS UK supports and educates patients, family, friends and healthcare professionals within the United Kingdom about this under recognised and commonly misdiagnosed condition by sharing up to date evidence and resources.
- We work with healthcare professionals and other charities in the UK and abroad, and advocate for our members by seeking better NHS services, more research, and targeted treatments for people with PoTS.
- We aim to connect patients in a safe environment to empower them to self-manage their condition and reduce isolation.
- We produce evidence-based educational content for healthcare professionals which will improve awareness of PoTS, diagnosis and management, and improve health services for patients.
PoTS UK began as a Facebook group in 2010, and until 2015 all the work was undertaken by three volunteer trustees. Since then, we have grown into an internationally recognised charity. Our charity supports all ages, genders and ethnicities. Read more about our history
