A quick note to remind you of a Thyroid conference being run by TPA, Thyroid Patient Advocacy, next week in Birmingham. If you are free, I believe there are a few places left – over 120 people are booked so far. I got the agenda this morning and I think it looks really useful and interesting.
Friday, 25 October 2013 – 11.30a.m: TPA Annual Conference: The Novotel, 70 Broad Street, Birmingham B1 2HT – Tickets £15 to include Hot and Cold Buffet Lunch.
You can find out more here and download a booking form, and here’s the agenda for you:
