Community Organisation Award: Gender
Endometriosis South Coast is an inclusive charity set up to support people who are going through the diagnosis stages of Endometriosis and Adenomyosis or have been diagnosed with the conditions. They are also there for people that feel they may be suffering with the conditions without starting the process of diagnosis; friends, family and cheerleaders of the people that have to jump through hoops to get started on the diagnosis pathway. 1 in 10 people are diagnosed with Endometriosis. This condition is an underfunded and undertreated area of health; Endometriosis South Coast is on a mission to change that. This incredible charity actively fundraises, researches the condition, and spreads awareness through a variety of campaigns. They also provide in-person and virtual support sessions for everyone in their community and educate members with monthly support group meetings.
