Welcome

Jewish Genetic Disorders UK (JGD UK) is a registered charity dedicated to improving the awareness, prevention and management of Jewish genetic disorders across the Jewish, healthcare professional and wider community.

We focus on a group of genetic conditions that, though not exclusively Jewish, are of particular relevance to people of Jewish ancestry.

Our resources are available to everyone across the Jewish community and the general population.

We provide information impartially, empowering people to manage their own condition in the best way possible according to their individual circumstances and beliefs.
