Sussex Support Group
This support group is for people with any form of cardiomyopathy, their family members, friends and supporters.
This group aims to provide a relaxed environment for people affected by cardiomyopathy and their families to hear from a variety of expert speakers and to meet others living with the condition.
This group is hosted by Jo McQueen who is a Heart Failure Nurse Specialist at the Royal Sussex County Hospital. She is supported by Dr Tommy Alway, who is the Consultant Cardiologist and Service Lead for Inherited Cardiac Conditions at the UH Sussex NHS Trust.
