Our Support Services

We are here for everyone, but we understand that support isn’t one-size-fits-all. Speak to us. We can tailor our support to meet your unique needs.

Connect with peers in the muscle wasting community at our webinars and information days, or join one of our support groups. Including virtual therapeutic sessions and local meetings. Reach out today. Our life-changing support is here for you.

Call us on 0800 652 6352.  Our helpline is open Monday to Thursday 10am to 2pm. If you call outside of the helpline opening hours, please leave a message and we’ll aim to get back to you within five working days.

Here for you

Peer support

Sometimes you just want to speak to someone who knows exactly what you’re going through. Someone who has personal experience of living with a muscle wasting or weakening condition and who will listen without judgement.

Information days

Throughout the year we hold in-person Information Days across the UK. You can meet others, get expert information and advice, and find out more about the services and support that we offer. 

Webinars

Our free webinars offer you the opportunity to hear from expert speakers, share your experience and ask questions. They are held on Zoom so you can join from wherever you are in the UK.

Employability Service

Our Employability Service will help you get into employment that works for you. Or if you’re already employed, we can provide advice and support to help you continue working in a way that is safe and sustainable. 

Our support groups

We know that talking to people with similar experiences is powerful. Our support groups are safe and welcoming places to talk to others affected by muscle wasting and weakening conditions, share experiences and meet people who understand what you’re going through. Whether you’re looking to find support in-person, or online, we’ve got a support group for you.
