Dizziness Foundation

This is the first community-focused charity in New Zealand dedicated to people experiencing vestibular symptoms. It exists because we know firsthand how difficult these conditions can be to navigate.

Dizziness and imbalance can affect every part of a person's life. For some, it's an occasional episode of vertigo. For others, it's a daily struggle with balance, nausea, fatigue and the uncertainty of not knowing when symptoms might strike.

It can make everyday activities like working, driving, spending time with family and friends or even leaving the house difficult. Dizziness and vestibular disorders are often poorly understood, leaving people feeling isolated and unsure where to turn for reliable information.

The Dizziness Foundation is working to change that. Established by Co-founders that have personal experience of vestibular symptoms, the charity is dedicated to improving access to reliable information for people in New Zealand and advocating for better recognition and understanding of vestibular conditions, and the impact these can have on people's lives.

Every donation, no matter the size, helps us build a future where where no one living with vestibular disorders feels they have to navigate it alone. Together, we can create a future where people living with vestibular dizziness and imbalance feel heard, understood and have a clearer way forward.
