UKTS is very excited to be collaborating with Jules Ventriloquist to create an educational series for children about thalassaemia. This is the first of its kind, so we hope you enjoy it whilst learning some new things about thalassaemia! This is a great educational resource to show the children and we are very grateful to Jules Ventriloquist for volunteering her time for this.
