  3. Irish meetings

    Meetings for Addison's Ireland members are held each year, usually in autumn. We try to rotate the meeting to a new location each year, so that everyone may have the opprtunity to travel a shorter distance to attend some years. Meetings are announced in the ADSHG members' newsletter and on the members' meeting calendar and in the online forum. Some ADSHG members from Northern Ireland have attended meetings in the past and are always most welcome.
