I’m a carer

Information for anyone caring for a friend or family member with AAV

AAV Patient Association Group representatives were involved at every step of the development of the creative initiative and even helped to choose its name, SEE ME. HEAR ME and the accompanying artwork from a series of designs created by Shanali – an artist, rheumatologist, and vasculitis patient.

SEE ME. HEAR ME forms part of Vifor Pharma’s mission to help patients around the world with severe and chronic diseases lead better, healthier lives.

Co-created with Patient Association Groups from across Europe, SEE ME. HEAR ME seeks to empower people with AAV and their carers in feeling understood, seen and heard.
