#lymphoedemawould love to go but way too far away for a weekend seeing I’m working on the friday my Pc has a bung sound card so I would be lip reading. Hopefully a session will come to Sydney. At some point
But this year they doing it all online,no face to face /people in a room due to pandemic, which is great so almost anyone can access it from home
, only if they lucky enough to have tech, with a sound that works.
But online conference I guess is better then nothing.
2019 was held at UTS in Sydney.It was great.They have held it there a few times.Maybe next year.
The link for the 2021 event still has /Tamworth in the link.
Bit of a woopsy.But the Lymphoedema support group NSW rely mostly on volunteers and mistakes like that easily made.At least it's on the webpage so people who are interested can see the details.
