The Ménière’s Society is a UK registered charity proud to have a fund exclusively for vestibular research. Our Research Programme started in 1998 and, since then, we have supported projects aimed at identifying:
- better tests to identify and monitor conditions
- less destructive treatments for severe cases
- a better understanding of the cause of vestibular disorders
- a greater understanding of the psychology of vestibular disorders.
