Penpal Scheme

We are co-operating with The National Adrenal Diseases Foundation of the U.S., the Canadian Addison's Society and the Australian Addison's Society in a shared pen-pal network for children with Addison's disease. We will jointly co-ordinate requests by children who wish to write to others around their own age, either via electronic mail or on paper.

Please specify your name, age, whether you are a boy or a girl, whether you would prefer a British, North American or Australian penpal, and the address you wish to be contacted on (either e-mail or postal). You will be then contacted by one of the group co-ordinators for this scheme.

If you wish to participate in this programme, please send an e-mail with the message heading "Kids Penpal" to:  NADF@aol.com

UK residents who do not have e-mail can write to "Kids Penpal", C/O Mrs Deana Kenward, 21 George St, Guildford, Surrey GU1 4NP.
