SPIN 112 © 2024 The Ménière’s Society ’s Society 5 Online Support Sessions “I found it very useful and interesting to find out how other people are affected and how they cope with it. I am sure it will help me deal with the condition in future and I will join in with future meetings.” The Ménière’s Society hosts online sessions to give our members and supporters a chance to chat with us and each other about their vestibular condition and how they manage it. Meetings are hosted by the Ménière’s Society team and offer the chance for informal discussion and an opportunity to ask questions (note: questions should be of a general nature as we’re unable to give medical advice or answer questions related specifically to your own medical condition). From time to time, we’ll also have guest speakers discussing a variety of topics.. Meetings run at lunchtimes or evenings to try and give everyone a chance to attend. To register for a meeting please call us on 01306 876883 or email info@menieres. org.uk with your full name and Ménière’s Society membership number, confirming your preferred meeting day/time. Forthcoming meeting (please note time stated is London, UK) 17 April 2024 13:00—13:45 Places are limited to give everyone a chance to chat and will be allocated on a firstcome first-served basis. You will receive confirmation by email and a Zoom link for the meeting.
