The British Sjögren's Syndrome Association (BSSA) was founded in 1986, as a registered charity, to raise awareness of the disease and support research into its cause and treatment. A self-help organisation with more than 1800 members, the BSSA is dedicated to providing mutual support and information to individuals affected by this disabling disease.

This year, the BSSA is offering a grant of up to £20,000 for research associated into the causes and treatment of Sjögren's Syndrome. PLEASE NOTE APPLICATIONS FOR THIS GRANT CLOSE ON 12TH JULY 2013.
In 2014, we will be offering smaller grants totalling £5,000. Students and support workers are all welcome to apply.

Tickets for the 2013 BSSA AGM & Patient Meeting have sold out in days.
