*Patient Group
In other countries like Italy and France PS patient groups exist. Where data is gathered about those living with PS to better understand what's going on. They have then gone on to develop this to include support services for both physical and medical help. PIP-UK want to follow this model and are looking for members to belong to this group. More information will be available on the day in 30 minute sessions which is is completely optional to attend.
PLEASE NOTE: Any child (under the age of 18) can only attend with full and appropriate adult supervision.
