The Irish Haemophilia Society in conjunction with the UK Haemophilia Society are organising an event for women and bleeding disorders in the Northern Ireland Council for Voluntary Action (NICVA) in Belfast on
Saturday 22nd June.
We hope this conference will help to promote awareness of the needs of women with bleeding disorders, as well as serving as an educational and informative information day. We would like to encourage you to attend
this very worthwhile information day.
If you would like to attend, please contact Aoife Kelly in our office on 01 6579900 or by email at aoife@haemophilia.ie, or book your place online here.
Please also note, numbers permitting, we will organise a coach from our office in Dublin to Belfast return.
