Perth Myeloma Support Group
Our Support Group supports patients and family/friends affected by myeloma and is open to anyone who finds this venue within travelling distance.
We usually begin our meetings by inviting a speaker to discuss an aspect of myeloma for approximately 30-40mins. Topics and speakers range from health and wellbeing relating to group members, Myeloma UK the charity and how it supports patients and families, as well as policy matters, fundraising and also consultants and healthcare professionals on current treatments and trials. There is then time for questions from the Group.
These sessions are followed by refreshments (supplied and served by Lynne and friends) and time for general chat/support for one another.
Our meetings are relaxed, informative and supportive and all are welcome.
