Migraine is a disabling condition affecting one in seven people in the UK—more than asthma, diabetes and epilepsy combined—and impacts three times as many women as men. Many patients wait years for effective care: our own survey found almost 61 percent wait over five years, and almost 40 percent wait ten years or more. Without specialist support, migraine can cause chronic pain, social exclusion, financial hardship, and deteriorating mental health, leaving many trapped in cycles of suffering.

We provide 40-minute consultations with expert headache specialist doctors, delivering personalised care plans and access to the latest effective treatments — available to all, regardless of financial circumstances. Patients are listened to, understood, and supported with expert care. Last year we delivered 2,833 consultations with many reporting dramatic improvements after just one session — relieving pain, restoring hope and helping them return to work, study and family life.
