Regional Co-ordinator:

Sharon Bell

“Hello, my name is Sharon Bell and I am the Regional Co-ordinator for the Scottish Group.


We all have a great time getting together for our quarterly meetings; we have various members attending – children, adults and both parenteral and enteral feeders.
 


 

We have informal meetings and have guest speakers along sometimes, but most of all we enjoy our time together and being a support to each other: that is what PINNT is about.

We vary our meetings; we have meetings twice a year in hotels, once in a hospital and we travelled to a different location for our last meeting”.

Here are our meeting reports:

Date of meeting:   10th December 2005
Venue:   Venue: Langlands Building, Southern General Hospital, Glasgow

What a wonderful meeting we had, this time of year is always so busy preparing so it was nice for a group of friends to all get together. It is so hard to believe that another year has passed.

We had 23 people attending and 5 children, how we all can share and give support to each other never ceases to amaze me. I want to thank all of our members for giving me the support this year and attending meetings in new areas, having the chance for us to get to know members who have not been able to travel through to Glasgow.

We have discussed about moving the meeting around and we are planning on returning to Dundee in June of next year and possibly also our Christmas meeting too.

We had a raffle and we raised £32.50 for Pinnt and we had a special treat one of our young members brought along his harp and shared his music with us, not a sound was heard as he played and we all just sat back and listened.
I am so looking forward to next year to see where PINNT goes from here and please feel free to contact me if there is anything I can do for you.

Date of meeting:   11th December 2004
Venue:   Normandy Hotel, Renfrew

What a great meeting we had, yes everyone was in the party mood as it was our Christmas meeting, but you can really tell how our group has bonded over the last year and enjoy their time coming together. We had 21 attendees.

We spent a short time going over some new points within PINNT and everyone was over the moon with the new billboards - they were commenting on them as soon as they walked through the door, they also thought our new Regional Display Folders were an excellent idea. We have decided for next year where we usually travel to another region for one of our meetings that we are going to hopefully have one in either Dundee or Perth, so our members in those areas would be able to attend.
After this we all enjoyed having some munchies together and catching up with each other.

We had a raffle and raised £60 in total for PINNT and a £20 donation was kindly sent down from a member in Aberdeen Mr McLean- a very big thank you for that.
I am looking forward to what 2005 holds for all of us and PINNT.
