Conference & AGM

The Mid Down Support Group is holding its AGM & One-day Conference on Thursday 3rd November 2011 in the Lodge, Dublin Road, Castlewellan.  The day will begin at 10.15am with registration. The AGM will commence at 10.30am.

The programme is based on topics that are relevant to people affected by Multiple Sclerosis. Our guest speakers bring a wide range of knowledge to the conference and we hope that people affected by a diagnosis of Multiple Sclerosis will come along and when they leave at the end of the day they will have information that will help them in their everyday life.
