Thanks. I had a look at this. The nearest to me is London. Looked at train times & an hour & a half away. I’d love to do this but I couldn’t stand the thought of being caught short on the journey!! 😩

Oh dear - i understand perfectly. London to Manchester is a long way. I wonder if there are ‘local’ centres who carry out the work - I was in a trial at my local hospital and they had several other centres taking part or if your own GP or hospital could take part? Might be worth contacting them and asking.

It is also something that the organisers should perhaps take into consideration because if people who would benefit are not applying to take part for the same reason as you then they are not necessarily getting a true picture with their results.
