Northumberland, Tyne and Wear branch annual general meeting with a presentation from the Huntington's Disease Association
18 Sep 2025, 13:00 - 16:00
Choose event information:
Attend to elect next year's branch executive officials and ratify your branch reps. You'll hear about Huntington's disease, which is a genetic progressive neuro-psychiatric disorder. It is too frequently the case that people with Huntington's disease struggle to get the support with their mental health that they need.
The Huntington's Disease Association has organised this presentation to look at how we can better support people with Huntington's disease with their mental health.
Network with RCN members in your branch area while boosting your knowledge and gaining new skills.
At the AGM section of the event, you will help the branch to ratify its reps for the year to come, and also help to elect a new branch executive committee for 2026.
