Irish Primary Immunodeficiency Association CLG

The Irish Primary Immunodeficiency Association (IPIA) is a charitable organisation dedicated to supporting people and families living with primary immunodeficiency (PID) throughout Ireland. By building a stronger community, the association raises awareness, improves access to timely diagnosis and optimal treatment, and provides practical guidance to help those affected manage their condition effectively.

IPIA offers a range of services, including easy-to-understand information and advice for patients and parents, a network of useful contacts such as clinical immunologists and patient support groups, and opportunities to contribute to vital fundraising and research initiatives. All activities are funded entirely by donations and grants, and the association keeps members informed through regular newsletters and updates on events such as the international IPIC2025 congress.

With a focus on education, advocacy and community support, IPIA works to ensure that the health needs of PID patients are understood by policymakers and healthcare providers, fostering a more informed and compassionate environment for all affected across the country.
