About Us
The UK's Endometriosis charity
We believe everyone should have access to accurate, transparent, and trustworthy information, especially when it comes to making decisions about their bodies.
​
The Endometriosis Foundation is a not-for-profit organisation dedicated to raising awareness, providing trusted and transparent information, education, and support. With our board made up of esteemed professionals and individuals with a lived experience of Endometriosis, we are uniquely positioned to bring around meaningful change.
​
Our unique experiences and credibility enable us to effectively achieve the charity’s goals and genuinely address the needs of individuals affected by Endometriosis.
The board of professionals brings specialised knowledge, clinical insights, and research expertise in the field of Endometriosis, while individuals with a lived experience provide first-hand insights into the challenges, needs, and perspectives of those affected by the condition. This combination enables us to develop content and resources that are both medically accurate and empathetically relatable.
Endometriosis can cause enormous suffering but remains understudied, under-funded, under-diagnosed and often misunderstood.
Our mission is to create a future where Endometriosis is recognised and understood.
Our vision is a future where everybody with Endometriosis receives the care and support they need.
We are the first charity in the UK to focus on fertility preservation treatments and raising Endometriosis awareness in young people. We educate, empower and encourage you to get to know what is normal and what is not around your period, and to speak up if you notice any changes.
Our goal is to ensure that Endometriosis is detected, diagnosed, and managed early.
