Hello, I am in the process of setting up a UK Buddy Network for anyone who is thinking of or has indeed had some type of WLS.

The idea would be to be able to pass on a phone number or email address of allocated Volunteer Support Officers in geographical areas of the UK, and they can give as much or as little support as required.

Any we would not be able to give any medical advice, just advice from our own personal journeys.

If you would be interested in joining such a network in any form, then let me know by dropping me a message.
