Groups meet in person or virtually and are a welcoming, safe and friendly place for people to share experiences, tips and information and form friendships.
Our local peer support groups meet online or in-person at different venues around the UK. If there isn’t one currently in your area, please get in touch with Mark Baxter, our Information and Support Coordinator. You can email him at services@RetinaUK.org.uk or call him on 07889 595783.
