September the 8th, 2010 is

Self Help and Support Groups

National Awareness Day.

 

It is an opportunity to showcase and celebrate the valuable and indispensable work that Self Help and Support Groups conduct for the well being of the community. During the week 6 – 12 September (Awareness week) we will be promoting the activities of all SHOUT Members and the value of self help and support groups in the Community.

 

Join us to raise awareness of the support provided by the many Self Help & Support Groups for people with a disability or long term health condition at our

 

Self Help & Support Groups National Awareness Day Fair

We will also launch the 2010 edition of the
