National Conference 2009
Our national conference, including our Annual General Meeting, will take place on Saturday and Sunday, 6th and 7th June 2009. We are still in the early stages of planning, but hope to book a venue in the York area. There will be a variety of speakers, and so far we have a commitment from Professor Dominic Wells of Imperial College London, and Professor Volker Straub from the Newcastle Muscle Centre. In addition Professor John Carpenter and David Abbott from Bristol University will be announcing the results of their research project which has investigated the experiences of young men with Duchenne muscular dystrophy during the transition to adulthood.Further news on speakers and workshops will be announced soon.
