PHA Europe - Pulmonary Hypertension Association

PHA Europe is an umbrella organisation for all the existing and newly formed PH support associations throughout Europe.

The ultimate goal for PHA Europe is to unite all European countries and to encourage the formation of effective PH support associations nationally.

Their mission is to look after the best interests of all European PH patients through supporting all (future) national European PH organisations by a standardised level of services.

We have supported this organisation since 2006.
