1. Social meetings

   ADSHG social meetings are run by local group members around the UK and Ireland. They take place in either local community halls or private homes, and follow an open agenda, with the opportunity to meet and talk with others over tea, coffee and cake. Where possible, an endocrine nurse from a nearby hospital joins the meeting to lead injection practice and answer questions.
