BRITISH RETINITIS PIGMENTOSA SOCIETY
This charity is no longer on the register, removed on 8 January 2014. A removal is usually a charity that wound up, merged, or fell below the income threshold, and is not in itself a finding against anyone — but an appeal still quoting this number today is quoting a charity the Commission no longer registers.

What it does
Our key objective is to find a cure for RP, a genetic disease of the eye which results in loss of vision, and often complete blindness. We do this by raising funds for medical research and using this money to stimulate and support cutting edge projects ranging from basic science to clinical trials. We provide a range of information and support services to people with RP and their families.
In the charity's own words, as filed with the Commission.
