Why have I been sent this survey and how will the research benefit me and others in Scotland's haemophiliac community?

This is a national survey of people with bleeding disorders and family members or carers who may benefit from Haemophilia Scotland or the Scottish Inherited Bleeding Disorder Network's support, information and advocacy services.

Our aim is to find out about needs and challenges facing people affected by bleeding disorders. The survey focuses on:
  • Health and wellbeing
  • Lifestyle
  • Employability 
  • Treatments
  • Issues affecting specific groups with bleeding disorders; children, women and older people
The research will help us to have informed discussions about how to design, improve and resource services. We are also gathering examples about the lived experience of bleeding disorders to help us articulate the needs of the community and highlight the importance of work carried by Haemophilia Scotland.

Findings will be presented in a final report and launched in the Scottish Parliament this Autumn.
