Event Details
Our Annual Conference is a wonderful opportunity to meet fellow Daisy Network members and hear from specialists in the field of premature menopause (premature ovarian failure). We also include content on family options so that you can explore all those available. The event helps our members: · Build friendships and networks. · Learn the latest on support services and treatment. · Explore options and future choices. All our contributors bring sensitivity and expertise to our Conference. Workshops and presentations will cover key areas and there is plenty of time for socialising. We have a buddy system which ensures guests are met, welcomed and introduced to another member. Friends and family members are welcome, though we do ask that children under 12 not attend.
