Further vestibular research is needed!

Our research programme began in 1998 and, since then, our charity is proud to have been able to invest over £1.2 million into vital projects aimed at diagnosing, treating and understanding vestibular disorders. As well as gaining a greater understanding about vestibular conditions, research we fund has a real and direct impact on those affected.

Why should I donate to the Ménière’s & Vestibular UK Research Fund?

We are the only registered charity in the UK with a research fund solely for spending on vestibular research. There is a desperate need for more research into these conditions, but funding for vestibular research is limited. We want to do more but, unfortunately, our funds aren't endless and so we need your help to replenish our funds so we can continue supporting vital research into vestibular disorders. We receive no government or statutory funding, so our income comes solely from the generosity of our supporters.

How can I donate?

  • Donate online
  • Email us to set up a regular donation
  • Become a member or research supporter; as well as supporting our work, you’ll receive regular updates about the latest management & treatment options and research in the field. 

“Thank you for funding [the research trial] and providing the means for my return to living, for which I will be eternally grateful.”
