Hi there,

Does anyone know when a meeting will be held at The Salford Royal Hospital? I have only just received the message regarding the Bolton One Meeting and I have an appointment somewhere else and unable to make it in time for the Bolton One meeting?

The Salford Royal Hospital is closer even though I see my Rhuemy Consultant and nurses at Bolton One. I moved about 6 months ago.

Hi angel-delight

We held an information evening there back in October last year. We have today finally announced when the next meeting will be, which is on Wednesday 18th March. This meeting won't be at the hospital though, it will be at the Angel Centre - not sure if you know it? If you get the Bolton emails, you should get the Salford email reminders too.

If you want to email me directly to [e-mail] then i can double check to make sure your email address in on the Salford mailing list.

Best wishes

Kim
