Happy New Year! On Wednesday 15 January we will meet for our first social of 2025. We'll be starting with a brief review and celebration of the things that took place last year before presenting the 2024 accounts showing how activities are funded, how we go about raising money and where we spend it!


The social will continue with a talk and Q&A from neurologist Dr Suzy Thompson, who works at the Royal Shrewsbury Hospital specialising in movement disorders and Parkinson's. This should be a really informative session – hope to see you there!
