Achalasia is a rare and often misunderstood swallowing condition, leaving thousands of people in the UK facing delayed diagnoses, limited treatment options, and significant physical and mental health challenges. Using Rare Disease Day as a platform, The Relations Group helped Achalasia Action raise awareness of the condition, spotlight the charity’s peer-support community, and educate the public and healthcare professionals about its impact. Through radio, podcast, and broadcast coverage, we highlighted patients’ experiences, the urgent need for research, and the importance of timely diagnosis, positioning Achalasia Action as the leading voice for people living with achalasia and empowering families to seek support and advocate for better care.
