About The Sickle Cell Society
The Sickle Cell Society is the only national charity in the UK that supports and represents people affected by a sickle cell disorder to improve their overall quality of life.
First set up as a registered charity in 1979, the Sickle Cell Society has been working alongside health care professionals, parents, and people living with sickle cell to raise awareness of the disorder. The Society’s aim is to support those living with sickle cell, empowering them to achieve their full potential.
The Sickle Cell Society believes that individuals with sickle cell have the right to quality care. This can only be achieved if funding is made available to educate health carers and other professionals about the condition. The Society aims to provide this.
We have a network of committed volunteers, who play an important part in running the charity, providing administrative backup, and helping with fund-raising activities.
The Society does not discriminate between the types of sickle cell disorders or the ethnic groups concerned. Both sexes are equally affected, and should have equal access to support and services within a confidential and sensitive environment. We respect the views of every patient.
Donations from the public and fundraising activities are also part of our life support. Without them, we would be unable to finance the essential research and educational projects and we would be unable to offer children a much-needed holiday. The Society benefits from the support of a wide range of individuals and organisations nationally, who together play a vital role in its success.

With @aristath work on this ticket #25160 I think we need to consider theme developers that use this type of CSS for block alignment. A big issue we have now is nesting paragraphs/headings. You may have a situation where you have a block that is full width and has a bg color on it and inside that you might want to put a paragraph that is aligned wide. Well with this setup your paragraph will go to the smallest declared wrapper size, I’m constantly adding align-wide and align-full classes to my paragraph blocks manually right now to get past this. It doesn’t need to be on by default, just a way to declare that you want wide and full alignment available on all blocks.
GB is assuming that all theme developers are using the same CSS for block alignment but do not give a default standard that everyone should be using.





OUR HISTORY
The Sickle Cell Society was first set up as a registered charity in 1979. It was formed by a group of patients, parents and health professionals who were all concerned about the lack of understanding and the inadequacy of treatment for people living with sickle cell disorders.
The Society is managed by a committee of 10 volunteers elected at the Annual General Meeting, and they meet each month.
