Hi,

When I last clicked on tab about PAS support groups in UK on PAS website, I noticed that two new groups had started up.

There are now 15 PAS support groups in UK and PAS always want to hear from anyone else who is willing to start one.

You will need to be a PAS member to access contact details.

Sadly no support groups in Northern Ireland that I am aware of.

B12d.org also hold support meetings near Durham,UK.

If you're not in UK ....

Netherlands

There may be something about on Stichting B12 Tekort website.

Norway

Although not a support group, there is a not for profit company in Norway that is trying to raise awareness of issues relating to B12 deficiency. It's mentioned on B12d.org website.

I have one near me soon. Not sure if I can go as I find driving in the dark quite difficult. Plus it finishes close to my bed time.

I went to the first London meeting- very nice group and good to meet Martyn Hooper who gave a talk. These are daytime meetings - I haven't managed to go since, because I work part-time and can't make the dates arranged (so far).

I know they are meeting up again for a Christmas get-together.

Hi jillc39,

There's a Greater London East group. If you're a PAS member you should be able to login to the PAS website and get contact details. See link in my original post.

If there's no group close to you then maybe you could start your own. PAS will support people who want to start a new PAS support group.
