PoTS UK Peer Support Group - Parents and Carers

These groups are the perfect opportunity to meet with fellow parents and carers and talk to those who understand what you are going through. These sessions will be run by volunteers who either have PoTS or are affected by PoTS.

All of our volunteers will have had references checked, DBS checks and completed safeguarding training.

We want these sessions to be as helpful to you as possible and will welcome your feedback to ensure we tailor the groups to what you need and want.

**The only person you/the person you care for should seek and accept medical advice from is your/their own healthcare professional who knows your/their medical history. It is essential that we do not give one another medical advice. These groups are the perfect opportunity to share experiences and you are welcome to share what has worked well for you/those you care for. We must however appreciate how different we all are and what has worked for one may not be suitable for another. Our volunteers may stop a conversation if it appears medical advice is being given**

Please read our Peer Support Group Guidelines ahead of the meeting.

Please be aware that for safeguarding purposes, these meetings will be recorded but will not be shared. At the start of the meeting, Zoom will need you to accept that you are happy for it to be recorded in order to join the session.

If you book a space and are then unable to attend, please let us know asap so someone can have your space. Please email peersupportgroups@potsuk.org.
