What's happening in your area?

The HMSA has a network of local groups around the country which get together for coffee and a chat. They are also a useful means of finding out about the support available in you local area or as means of raising awareness of HMS.

There are details of some groups meetings in a locked section on the HMSA Forum. Please see the topic on access to locked areas.

Local groups and regional contacts are listed below, by area. Please note that we are governed by the Data Protection Act and, for this reason, we can only give out contact information regarding others with HMS in your area to individuals who are members of the charity and have agreed to do so.
