Northern Ireland Iron Brew Social - February

Due to Covid-19, our Iron Brew socials are going online! Join us for our members' Iron Brew social, via Zoom.

This social is a "Norn Iron" special, co-hosted with Neil Irwin and Hilary Dickson from the Northern Ireland HUK members' team.

This is a chance to meet other people affected by genetic haemochromatosis.

There'll be a chance to ask questions about haemochromatosis, get to know others and share your own experiences (but only if you want to).

Joining us will be :

Neil McClements, CEO of Haemochromatosis UK
Izzy Lang, our Social Media Community and Volunteer Manager

Hilary Dickson
Vicki Lunn, Membership Administrator

Grab a cup of tea or coffee, pull up a chair and have a chat!
