Extractions: Welcome to the FSP Support Group The FSP Support Group is a 'self-help' group that aims to provide assistance to those suffering from Familial Spastic Paraplegia (also known as Hereditary Spastic Paraplegia or HSP).

We also have a number of professional associates. Members of the Group gain many benefits such as: The FSP Support Group was started in 1989 by Stephanie Wyatt to support her affected husband and son. Our membership is now nationwide and continues to rise. The aims of the group are to encourage and support sufferers. In addition, affected families are encouraged to support a genetic research programme by completing a family history tree chart. This pool of information is vital in identifying the source and origin of the condition with the view to reducing its occurrence. The current group awareness programme will hasten the work carried out by the team based at The National Hospital in London.
