Another "rare disease" advocate

Now its debateable whether FND is a rare (although it does appear in the NORD Directory, yet it is commonly presented to neurology referral).

When researching, I came across this organisation following a reference on FND Hope article and was scrolling through their history. They empower, partner, and advocate for people living with a rare disease in Europe.

This was a link on the current years achievements:

The EURORDIS Membership Meeting in May 2023 unites the community to advance a holistic approach to rare diseases and ensure full societal inclusion for individuals who live with them:

They advocate for individuals living with rare diseases and help enforce policy change.
