Why Do we Need TA?

Thalassaemia Australia (TA) focuses on the promotion, knowledge and understanding of haemoglobin conditions through community based education and awareness programs. We aim towards continuous improvement, community development and capacity building in order to empower members and individuals to make informed decisions regarding their future and the future of children.

TA provides community education, advocacy, support and awareness of thalassaemia and haemoglobin conditions to the Victorian community, health consumers and health representatives. With a new 'national focus' TA will work towards developing nationally distributed information and education material and develop collaborative projects bringing all states in line with common goals and aspirations.

TA has been greatly supported by teams of professional employees and dedicated volunteers on the committee of management and in the office for over 30 years now. Without a coordinated effort form all those involved, full time and part time, we would not have achieved our goals and moved toward a national outlook. Thalasaemia today is a widely recognised word and condition and is viewed with a greater sense of understanding. It is with a positive outlook and posterity that we move forward and continue our much needed work.
