Interested in Melbourne based support group?

6 Replies

I'm wondering if there are any other AF sufferers who live in Melbourne, Australia and are interested in forming a support group that could meet face-to-face for an informal coffee/tea/water from time to time.

The purpose of the group is not to replace the HealthUnlocked blog and definitely NOT to provide medical advice.

The group could serve the purpose of providing an opportunity to share experiences and provide some emotional support. We all know how isolating and emotionally draining the condition can be.

If your interested just reply here. If there is enough interest I'll try to take it forward.

Have you posted on the AFA Australia Facebook site?

I'm sure there's a few folks in Melbourne who may be interested.

I'm up in Albury/Wodonga.......a little too far to travel for a coffee and a chat 😊

Hi

Thanks for the suggestion but I don't use Facebook (boycott I'm afraid). but it sounds like a good idea. I'll investigate.
