Lots of people and organisations have said some very kind and heartfelt things to us, about why our work is important to them and why they support us. This new page is to share a few of these comments.  

Ben Lopez, St James's Place Wealth Management

​Thank you very much for the opportunity to sit down with you and learn more about the Thyroid Trust. The subject of ‘thyroids’ is one that I previously had little knowledge of, but our discussion was eye opening and highlighted the need for a greater understanding of the disease. This coupled with your commitment and enthusiasm to assist those suffering inspired me to put The Thyroid Trust forward for a grant from our local St. James’s Place office in Newbury. I’m delighted that we were able to help in some small way and look forward to hearing more about the great work you do.

Kelly Southcott, Kivo Change and co-author of The Future Charities Report

Read about Kelly’s harrowing, life-changing, personal experience with thyroid disease - and  her subsequent impressions of attending a thyroid eye disease conference in Pisa in 2019, as The Thyroid Trust representative. She shares her story on our Thyroid Friends Blog.   

Find our more about Kelly and The Future Charities Report on the Kivo website. ​

The Thyroid Trust has done so much in such a short space of time, The work you do is badly needed. You are performing like an organisation with an income around £300,000, with an actual income closer to a tenth of that. You need to grow. Get the resources in place to put the organisation on a surer, more sustainable footing so you can continue to deliver and increase your impact. 

Michelle Varchione, Shala Teacher

Michelle is a London based yoga teacher, who has supported The Thyroid Trust, by running two nurturing self care sessions, since she regained her health.  Read Michelle's story.

​The Thyroid Friends offered reassurance and guidance about how I was feeling and explained about the medication, sending me some information from reliable sources.  Having someone to speak to like this was so valuable!  I was doing all the right things and needed the validation and support which they provided.
Forever grateful to The Thyroid Trust for supporting me when I felt so lost with my hypothyroidism. 

Thank you Ben, Kelly and Michelle!
