Migraine Action is a registered charity with over 12,000 members. It aims to bridge the gap between the migraine sufferer and the medical world by providing information on all aspects of the condition and its management.

Their mission statement is: "To relieve the burden of headache by facilitating informed awareness and encouraging research".

Migraine Action has three main aims:

• To provide information and friendly, positive reassurance, understanding and encouragement to migraine sufferers and their families.
• To encourage and support research and investigation into migraine, its causes, diagnosis, prevention and treatment.
• To gather and pass on information about treatments available for the control and relief of migraine and to facilitate an exchange of information on the subject.

Migraine Action offers a telephone helpline, a quarterly newsletter and numerous leaflets on all aspects of migraine. Members participate in research and product trials and also collect and donate considerable sums of money to support migraine clinics and further research.

Migraine Action is funded entirely by donations and members' subscriptions. Please contact the Migraine Action for up-to-date subscription costs.
