Our UK Patients Day is held every autumn and is well received by members. There are presentations by top cardiologists, electrophysiologists and other healthcare professionals on a range of AF topics and it also gives patients an opportunity to ask questions and to talk to each other. In light of current circumstances, this year our Patients Day will be held online on our website at www.afa.org.uk
Regular patient groups are held around the country. Please call us for details.
AF Association has a wide range of booklets and factsheets on atrial fibrillation. Our publications are accredited by the AF Association Medical Advisory Committee and are endorsed by the Department of Health. They are reviewed and updated regularly as developments occur in the medical field.
“We want you to know that a diagnosis of AF does not mean that, once properly treated, your quality of life should be unduly compromised, and we wish you all the best for a long, happy and healthy future.”
Trudie Lobban MBE FRCP Edin - Founder & CEO, AF Association
