the first mpn group meeting will be on the 21st January 2015 at 6.30pm till 8.30pm at Maggie's in the grounds of the city hospital Nottingham. go in the door and down the stairs to the kitchen and for the first meeting we will meet in there. could you let me know who might be attending please. Angela the specialist mpn nurse will be in attendance, this first meeting is quite informal and Angela will speak to us to introduce herself and see what we want from the group. the group will be on the third weds of each month 6.30pm to 8.30pm at Maggie's I hope that quarterly we will have different speakers for the first hour on various subjects that are of interest to mpn patients. for example specialist nurses and doctors, Macmillan, Maggie's ,carer association's, benefits advice etc. If there is anything in particular we need to know as a group we can hopefully source someone to come and talk to us about this. I am hoping the group will support us as individuals but also our families and give us the information to live with our condition.i look forward to meeting you all michelle
an update maz will also be joining us which I think us absolutely fantastic

although we don't have to pay to meet at maggies they do ask for a donation anyone any ideas of how we do this please I think it because we can use there tea coffee etc we are booked in on 21st in the kitchen although there is another group in that night who will be upstairs as you come in the door the kitchen is straight down the stairs
hi again what I have decided to do is to take a tin of biscuits and a jar of coffee as a donation for the first time and then we can work it out from there what are others thoughts I have arranged for someone to come and talk to us about benefit at out april meeting and also for a patient to come and talk to us hopefully at out aug meeting but will of course get the groups views on the 21st to what we want from the group looking forward to meeting you all have a lovely Christmas and new year
