Epilepsy Wales - Telephone Support Group
| Author: Gareth Morris | Published: 13th May 2009 09:51 |
Epilepsy Wales is to benefit from a new initiative - a free Telephone Support Group - for those people who cannot, for whatever reason, get to a local support group.
Community Network, the telephone conferencing charity, has been awarded a grant by Awards For All to help fund telephone support groups in Wales. These groups help those who, for whatever reason, are unable to attend ‘face-to-face' groups but would still like the opportunity to have a chat, share information or exchange ideas once a month as part of an informal ‘get together'.
What do I need? All you need is a telephone line and an hour to spare once a month for a chat! There will be no cost involved as all the calls will be paid for by the miracle of modern technology.
What do I do next? At the moment we are registering people's interests. Contact me, details below, and I will send you out a very brief questionnaire, or you can give me the details over the telephone or e-mail. This will ask for name, telephone number, and what day and time you would be available on a regular basis each month. I will then select the most convenient day/time for the majority of people - and register this with the telephone group.
How does it work?: You will get a call from the organiser, Community Network, at no cost whatsoever to you, which will enable you to talk and listen to everyone on the line - just as though you were at a group meeting. You will be able to stay on and chat, or just listen, for as long as you like, or until we all say our cheerio's until next month.
Sounds Interesting?
