I would be interested - but would need to be weekends as I work all week and don't cope well with night driving.

Hi Karen. I live in Telford and would be happy to do it at my home or we can organise a café/something where we could meet up if Telford is too far. Where are you?

I'm on the Welsh/Shropshire border (Montgomery) and travelling is difficult for me as I have ME too. I just wondered how close you are to me. I hope that others contact you about meeting up. Karen x

It is. How far are you willing to travel?

I thought I'd see where everybody is situated and then suggest a meet up place, if it can't be at my house. So keep an eye on this post.

Hi I'm in Oswestry would be good to meet up, at work all week so weekend would be good. Maybe Shrewsbury would be a good mid point? :)

I agree it would be great to have a Shropshire support group, it's a big county though. I'm 46 miles from Telford, but I would be willing to travel. It's a case of finding somewhere convenient for everyone. What about Shrewsbury? I'm 35 miles from there, what about the other interested people?

hey Helcaster - just saw your similar question from a year ago - sorry I missed it! J :D

I can't believe I just lost my reply - arrhhhhhh :(

In Shropshire too - be privileged to meet fellow thyroidies for a chat - despite me never talking face to face & a bit 'shy' would you believe! as colleagues at work won't talk about it - hence why I'm on here.

I did a list - perhaps Shrewsbury? (I don't know Oswestry except the highwayman is nice & informal) I haven't done coffee shops lately - but..

the Square lots of coffee shops, Starbucks/Rackhams/Ask - or outskirts Percy Throwers/Salop caravans /Tesco/Sainsbury/2 Henrys/Red Lion/Grapes/ Oxon (Radbrook bit small 'tho) There's a very nice coffee/farm shop by me (6 miles North of Shrewsbury) You could come round my house if you didn't mind the mess! Jane :D

Hi. Just seen this post. I live in Newport. Would love to meet up. Don't manage to get on here very often but how fantastic to meet others in our area with similar issues. Somewhere with easy parking would be good :)

Ok, so it looks like we could either meet up in Telford or Shrewsbury. If Telford then you can come to my house. If Shrewsbury we can meet in a café. Can you all PM me your email addresses so I can try and organise something?

Hi. I live in Telford and would love to be part of a Shropshire support group and meet up. I am more than happy to drive to Shrewsbury if that's easier for others.

Hi just joined thyroid UK and was wondering if you have set up a support group up in Shropshire. I also live in Telford.

Did this ever happen? I'd be interested if it's still going on?

Hi, I too would be interested in meeting up as a support group, so I too am interested if this ever happened and if so what are the details?
