A brief summary of the official meeting procedures is followed by a mini-talk, then afternoon tea followed by a guest speaker. This month our guest speaker is Professor Catherine Theys, from the Canterbury Medical Research Foundation. Her subject is Stuttering. It should be very interesting. There will be time afterwards to mix and mingle some more if you wish.
The meeting will start sharp at 2pm so it's best to arrive a little bit early! There is no charge for your first three visits while you decide whether this group is for you or not.

We would love to see you - you will be made very welcome. PM me for further infomation or visit
