About Us
Shine Charity (formerly known as ASBAH) is the leading UK registered charity providing information and advice about spina bifida and hydrocephalus to individuals, families and carers.
Our involvement differs with each family or individual who contacts us. Some of the more common ways we help include: a dedicated helpline (charged at a local rate), support to families, help for adults and young people, information days, education advice, medical and health information, publications, research and information for professionals.
You can contact us on any matter relating to hydrocephalus or spina bifida for information or advice on everything from reducing the risk of having a baby with spina bifida, to independent living for adults with the disability.
