We will start off the weekend with registration and an informal buffet dinner on Friday evening. The programme for the weekend will include a mothers and fathers workshop and a session on new developments in haemophilia treatment in simple English and some interactive workshops. Instead of finishing at 1pm on Sunday, we will continue until 2pm and finish off with lunch from 2pm to 3pm. A residential weekend away for teenagers and youth adults will also take place, providing we get the numbers.
