New Muscle Groups dates announced
9 April 2025
Local Muscle Groups are our network of support groups across the UK open to anyone living with a condition and their family, friends and carers.
They’re a great opportunity to share experiences and meet other people living with muscle wasting and weakening conditions in your area. The groups are a supportive and confidential space where you can ask questions, connect with others and find out more about the support we provide.
The upcoming dates in June, July and August will take place in-person across 10 regions of England. With dates for Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland to be added soon.

Together we are stronger
Our Volunteer Engagement Manager, Calley Clay, said: “We’re delighted that our Muscle Group sessions will take place in person over the Summer. Bringing people together to have the time and space to discuss important topics that affect people in our community.
“We couldn’t run our Muscle Groups without the dedication of our volunteers, guest speakers and people living with a condition. We’re looking forward to welcoming you all.”
