A support group for those suffering from polycystic ovarian syndrome meets at Glasgow Royal Infirmary. The meetings are hosted by Isobel O’Neill and are held on Thursday evenings in the boardroom of the old hospital building at 7pm on specific dates.
The meetings are well attended and newcomers are welcome to just arrive on the evening. For information on PCOS and the next meeting date, please contact Isobel O’Neill.
My name is Sheena Young and I am Regional Organiser in Scotland for Infertility Network UK (I N UK). We are fortunate that The Scottish Executive Health Department fund my position, which has enabled us to have a branch here.
I have been in the post since 1997 and in that time have set up quite a few support groups across Scotland. In recent years there has been a very significant reduction in the number of active groups all over the UK. Here in Scotland at the time of writing this, we have just the group which I run in Ayrshire, one in Kirkcaldy and Cradle (formerly Glasgow Infertility Support Group) still active. It is sad that this is the case, but a survey of our members showed that many couples were seeking support in other ways and preferred not to meet face to face. The important thing is that we are able to provide support and information in the way that best suits each individuals needs.
