The formation of the European Sickle Cell Federation is an umbrella network of Sickle Cell Disease patient organisations with one united strong voice. It is a non-profit organisation with its headquarters located in Brussels, Belgium. 

According to the EMA (EU/3/18/2125), there are approximately 52,000 people in the European Union living with Sickle Cell Disease. We at ESCF represent these patients, and also support the National Member Organisations (NMOs) to allow for integration and engagement.
