CJD Support Network - Changes related to Covid
The Annual Family Day Meeting
Because of the Covid situation, we have had to cancel our arrangements for the 2020 annual November Family Day Meeting. This is unfortunate but unavoidable.
After some consideration, we have decided to replace the Meeting this year with several on-line sessions. During these sessions, we hope to provide attendees with information and updates as well as allowing you to ask questions or simply share experiences.
Our intention is to hold 3 sessions initially: in September, October and November. These will consist of a relatively short presentation on a topic (around 20 minutes) followed by an open Q&A session in which attendees can ask questions or make comments on that topic. Following this, there will be an opportunity for attendees to ask any other questions. While we anticipate that the total session may last around an hour, there will be no fixed end-time and we will carry on while there are active questions/discussion.
The meetings will be held using Zoom. Details of how to join will be provided to those who register for the meeting. If you wish to attend, please email Gill Turner at the CJDSN at This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.
The first session is:
WEDNESDAY 09.09.20 Starting 18.00
Topic: The Diagnostic Process
Introductory Talk: Richard Knight
Meeting Chair: Beth Marsh
The details of the next two sessions (October & November) will be provided shortly.
The AGM
As a Charity, we need to have an AGM (Annual General Meeting). This is a relatively brief business meeting that we usually hold during the annual Family Day Meeting. This year, it wuill have to be a virtual, Zoom, meeting and it will be held on FRIDAY 13th November 2020 at 18.00. Details will be provided at a time nearer the date.
