MDI Neuromuscular Support Group


Picture
Every Wednesday from 7pm to 8.30pm
Muscular Dystrophy Ireland is currently running a support group for parents and carers of people diagnosed with neuromuscular conditions.  The aim of the group is to provide information and support for carers in a confidential and empathic environment.   Members of a support group typically share their experiences and offer one another emotional and moral support.   Being part of a support group can help develop new skills, cope better and feel less isolated as connections are made with others facing similar challenges. In addition, the members of the group who are facing or have faced similar challenges can support each other and may have suggestions or new ways of dealing with a particular challenge.
Perhaps one of the greatest benefits of a support group is recognising that we are not alone that there are other people who encounter the same challenges and may feel isolated when caring for someone with a neuromuscular condition.

The group meet every Wednesday from 7 to 8.30pm at Muscular Dystrophy Ireland’s head office at 75 Lucan Road, Chapelizord, Dublin 2
