We need your help to project a strong and organised patient's support group.  This committee is a great opportunity to apply your passion and dedication to making your clinic find its voice and ensure we receive our entitled services.

 

Your innovative ideas and knowledge are important assets to this committee.  As a committee member you will inspire others to “think outside the box,” you have the power to change and improve our already established support group for the future.  We hope that you will join this effort as we work together to help the support group members receive their services and manage these new commitments and help to achieve charity status.
