How we Work
The meetings are very informal and all patients, carers and relatives are
welcome! They include guest speakers presenting varying topics or updates
from the team, and then the opportunity for the members ask questions, share
experiences, or discuss any difficulties.
When we Meet
We meet on the last Thursday of every month between 6-8pm in the Outpatients Waiting Area at Liverpool Heart and Chest Hospital
