Local Groups

Welcome to the Local Groups section.


Date change:
The next meeting of the Lancashire & NW Yorkshire group will be on Monday March 19th, NOT Monday March 12th.

If you are not already part of your local group why not contact your local contact and find out more details? You don't have to be a member of the society to join a local group.

Thanks to our local contacts we have groups meeting in many parts of U.K. but sadly in some areas we have no local contact and therefore no opportunity for people with scleroderma to meet others who understand how they feel, not just about the disease but themselves. If there's no group in your area why not start one? For that you would need to be a member so that we can put you in touch with members in your area and support you effectively.

If you want any more information about local groups, please contact your local contact. If you want any information about starting a local group please contact me.

We look forward to hearing from you.
