Leg Club Launch
January 29, 2007 3:21 PM
Welsh Liberal Democrat AM for Brecon and Radnorshire, Kirsty Williams, has attended the launch of a new support group for those with leg-related health problems.
The 'Leg Club' in Llandrindod Wells has been instituted by local community nurses, and offers treatment and information in a non-medical setting to people with leg wounds and circulatory problems.

Ms Williams said: "I was delighted to attend the official launch of the Llandrindod club, and wish them every success for the future. The group has gone from strength the strength since it opened in September -they are up to nearly 50 members now - and I understand it is one of only two such clubs in the whole of Wales. I was extremely impressed by the hard-working nurses, and by the successful fundraising efforts which have enabled the club to be formed. The group is clearly valued by its members, and I hope it is soon able to obtain the secure funding it needs to establish itself as a permanent fixture in the community."
Notes:
Ms Williams attended the official launch of the Leg Club on Thursday.
The club, which is based at St John's Hall in Quarry Lane, meets every Thursday between 9.10am and 12pm, and is attended by those from Builth and Rhayader as well as Llandrindod. Members are referred by their GP's, or can just turn up, the sessions operating on a drop-in basis. For further information, call 01597 828765.
