Notice of AGM

The West of Scotland Pain Group will hold its AGM in the informal surroundings of the Republic Bier Halle, Gordon St, Glasgow (along from Central Station) on:

Thursday 28th May at 7pm

This is a great opportunity for young and 'more experienced' health professionals to be involved in the planning of this coming winter's programme of lectures and talks, and thus to add a new experience (and title!) to your CV. Positions on the committee will be available to those wanting more involvement, but the meeting is open to all those of you who may simply have suggestions for the sort of speakers, format and location you would like to see.

We hope to see as many of you there as possible.

David Craig
Secretary
