King’s Lynn & District Ostomy Support Group meets at the Reffley Community Hall in King’s Lynn on the first Saturday of March, June, September and December.
The group covers North and West Norfolk, Cambridgeshire and Lincolnshire and is run by Colostomy, Ileostomy and Urostomy patients for patients, their families and friends.
Informative talks on health-related matters of interest to the group are given by both health care professionals and guest speakers and refreshments and a raffle are provided.
The group provides a person to person forum for patients to meet up with others and share their support and tips in a friendly, informal environment to encourage wellbeing and regain self-confidence.
We are disappointed that we have been unable to arrange meetings since the COVID-19 lockdown in March and know that many of our members share our disappointment, especially as the Christmas meeting has now been cancelled.
We would nevertheless like to reassure them that the meetings will recommence just as soon as Government safety guidance allows and hope to have further news regarding the March 2021 meeting early next year.
We look forward to seeing our friends and group members, both old and new, just as soon as we can – please watch this space for any news!
