The Robert James Graves Foundation SCIO

I explain the R.J.G. Foundation’s mission and goals so people with Graves’ Disease and their supporters can find clear, reliable help. Our focus is education, charitable support and funding research — the three pillars that guide every programme we run.

In this article I describe: how we raise awareness, provide evidence-based resources, offer financial and emotional support, and invest in research to improve diagnosis and treatment. I also outline practical services such as helpline support, workshops and grants, and ways you can engage: subscribe, attend events, volunteer or donate.

Read the full overview to learn how the Foundation seeks to improve quality of life for people living with Graves’ Disease and how you can get involved. Let us be a dependable resource on your journey. 🌿📘

We hear you — living with Graves’ disease can make everyday tasks feel harder. Here are patient-tested, practical steps to help you feel more in control between clinic visits: 1) Manage fatigue with short, scheduled rest breaks and prioritised tasks; 2) Reduce stress using 5-minute breathing exercises or a simple walking routine; 3) Keep medication routines consistent with alarms and a pill organiser. Our Foundation offers one-to-one support, evidence-backed information resources and peer experiences to guide these steps. Visit https://wix.to/sUMOOKy to learn more and connect with others.

I used to start each morning feeling rushed and anxious, which made my Graves’ symptoms worse. I began a simple 10-minute routine: a brief breathing exercise, a light walk, and a checklist of three manageable tasks. Within weeks I noticed less tremor and clearer focus. If you’re living with Graves’ Disease, small, consistent habits can reduce symptom burden and improve daily routines. The RJG Foundation offers one-to-one peer support, practical guides, and community forums to help you build a personalised plan. Learn more and access resources at https://wix.to/SsIa97r 🌿🤝 .

“Some mornings I wake up exhausted, my heart racing before I even get out of bed. I’ve learned to start the day by checking my pulse, logging symptoms, and letting my team at work know I may need short breaks. At home I’ve asked family to keep meals simple and predictable so I can rest when needed. On difficult days I switch to lighter tasks and use voice notes to keep up with messages. Tracking patterns has helped me spot triggers and plan appointments. I’m sharing this because these small adaptations make daily life more manageable — and you are not alone.
