Thanks very much to Ali for taking the time to see us yesterday. I am sure I speak for everyone in attendance by saying that it was an informative talk.

It was also good to see a few new faces as well and I appreciate that some of you had long journeys as well.

If anyone has any questions following on from yesterday or if they wish to start a new topic in this area of the forum then please don't hesitate to send me a private message.

I know this reply has been a long time coming, Grant, but the next meeting is on Saturday 27th September at 10.30 am. The speaker will be Mary Bairstow, optometrist and low vision specialist, talking about 'Access to Low Vision Services - is there a need for a change of focus for people with keratoconus'. The meeting will be held in Vista Shop, 21 Hotel Street, Leicester, LE1 5AW
Please note this is not the venue we've used in the past for East Mids meetings, but is much more central so we hope will be easier for members to get to.
Do come along!

Excellent. If there is a flyer available or template I can get printed I'll ask if they can be put up in the Leicester Royal Infirmary?

Patricia, who organises the meetings, normally does this. But I've e-mailed you the poster she sent me in case it's not there.

Thanks to everyone involved in organising the meeting, was a very interesting talk by Mary and it was good to meet others from the group.
