Welcome

Welcome to the website of Neurofibromatosis New Zealand (NF NZ). NF NZ is devoted to raising awareness of neurofibromatosis and supporting families through the challenges of neurofibromatosis. This website contains information on neurofibromatosis and details on our planned activities.

Neurofibromatosis is a genetic disorder that causes tumours to grow on nerves, which can cause abnormalities in skin and bones. It affects about 1 in 3,000 people.
