Lyme Resource Centre
@lymeresourcecentre.bsky.social
A Scottish charity (SCIO: SC049151) founded in 2019 with a mission to raise awareness in the public and healthcare professionals about Lyme disease and related tick-borne co-infections and work with others to find ways to combat all tick-borne illnesses.
As the year comes to a close, we want to say a huge thank you to our incredible fundraisers, supporters, and followers.

Your generosity has made a real difference & we couldn’t do this work without you.

Here’s to hope, kindness & making an even bigger impact together in 2026!
