World Haemophilia Day
2026-04-17
Tonight, Old Treasury Building will turn red in support of World Haemophilia Day. Join us as we raise awareness of haemophilia, von Willebrand disease, rare clotting factor deficiencies, inherited platelet disorders and other rare bleeding disorders.
This year’s theme, ‘Diagnosis: First step to care’ highlights the hundreds of thousands of people with bleeding disorders worldwide – including women and girls – whose lack of a diagnosis means they are missing out on basic care and support.
