The Thalidomide Society Membership
Why become a member of the Thalidomide Society?
Formed by parents of children with impairments caused by thalidomide, which had been dispensed under the name of Distaval in the UK.
The Thalidomide Society began primarily as a support group for the children, their families and carers as there was little or no help from the UK government and health authorities.
