Group meetings are held on the third Thursday of every month (except December), in Houlden Hall, Norfolk Row in Sheffield City Centre and all are welcome to attend. You may want to find out more about diabetes, or to chat to others.

Norfolk Row is the short pedestrianised street between Fargate and Tudor Square (site of the Crucible and Lyceum Theatres). See map and pictures above. The entrance to Houlden Hall is in between the Hairdressers shop and the railings of St. Maries Cathedral.

Doors open at  7.15 p.m. with refreshments available.

We welcome everyone affected by diabetes, whether newly diagnosed or longer term, along with carers, relatives, friends etc. There is always the opportunity to talk to other members of the group, ask questions and share experiences.

 

NEXT MEETING: 20 August:  Social & Business Meeting: Planning the Programme for 2010: Come along with your ideas and suggestions about what topics we should cover in next year's monthly meetings. We try to include as many different aspects of diabetes as we can and to invite a range of expert speakers.
