If you would like to join one of our online meetings, please let us know which, out of the groups listed below, suits you best - you can contact us by using this link or email membership@paget.org.uk 
Those who indicate their desire to join are sent a link a few days before the meeting. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to get in touch.

The group meetings are for anyone affected by Paget's disease, including partners and family. Group meetings are held online, using Zoom, for an hour, every two months. There is no obligation to join every meeting.

Those attending have the opportunity to speak with others affected by Paget's Disease of Bone, receive information, watch videos regarding various aspects of Paget's, make new friends and gain support from each other, as well as from our Specialist Paget's Nurse, Diana, who facilitates the meetings.
