hi steven

just to reiterate what Anne has said in her post.

A manchester group is now close to being underway so keep a careful eye out for posts regarding that.

if you would like to PM me or Anne in the meantime, and the same goes for any body else , esp if interested in helping to support with the organisation of the group, then that would be appreciated.

Hi

I'd be very interested in a Manchester Group meeting (I'm in Wigan)

Please let me know if you need any help with the organising or anything - I too have never met anyone else with KC..

Hiya Christine,

Thats three of us now. Any more?

Thanx for trying to give things a kick start Anne.

I suppose it depends on the location of those who indicate an expression of interest but any ideas on a venue? Somewhere just off a MWY junction.

Steven,

At the West Midlands Group we find many that attend look at the forum but never post. Others would much rather have something through the post.

Of the Birmingham group, I think about 3 or 4 of us post regularly, but at a meeting with invites being sent out we get between 12 to 24 depending on the subject for discussion.

Once the Manchester group kicks off, you might be surprised at how many of you there are and how far people are prepared to travel. We have had people from Bradford attend the West Midlands meet before.
Gareth
