A National Haemoglobinopathy Panel (NHP) was also created, to provide expert, multidisciplinary advice on difficult decisions about the management of patients with sickle cell disease, thalassaemia and some other rare anaemias. KCH, GSTT and the Evelina were also appointed to jointly host this panel, which will work closely with the SELSE HCC and other HCCs across England.
