In some areas of the country, local branches and groups have formed to offer mutual support and information. These groups, run by volunteers, have a range of in person and online meetings, sometimes with guest speakers covering medical and non-medical topics. They also hold social and fundraising events.
The areas where you will find these groups are:
- Cambridge
- London and Surrey
- Newcastle Upon Tyne
- Northern Ireland
- Sheffield & District
- Yorkshire & Humberside
If you are interested in joining in with one of these locally-based groups, please contact our helpline on 01223 910854 or email info@urostomyassociation.org.uk and we will put you in touch with a local co-ordinator.
Visit our events page for a list of up and coming meetings.
We are setting up a network of local champions to cover locations without a local group.
