Without the generous support of companies and individuals we would not be able to continue providing this invaluable service to our members

Shine has 8500 members with hydrocephalus, all of whom are offered a Shine “Shunt Alert” card to keep about their person. The card provides essential information about our member should anything happen to them and can literally save their lives. By purchasing a balloon in the event, you will be assisting Shine in providing vital, and sometimes lifesaving, ongoing support.

Shine (formerly ASBAH) was formed in 1966 to support families living with spina bifida and hydrocephalus on a daily basis. 2016 marks our Golden Anniversary and in that time we have grown as an organisation and currently support around 12,000 families and individuals, not only with spina bifida and hydrocephalus, but with a range of other health issues associated with these conditions.
