Support Meetings
Our online support meetings offer a welcoming space for anyone affected by Myelodysplastic Syndromes (MDS) to share experiences and receive emotional and practical support. Some sessions include talks from MDS specialists with time for questions. Meetings are held on Zoom, last 1.5–2 hours, and are hosted by MDS UK staff or trained volunteer ambassadors. Caregivers and family members are also very welcome.
Membership is required to attend support meetings, but it’s completely free. Click the red button to sign up. If you have any questions, feel free to call us on 020 7733 7558.
