Mum Starts Support Group for Rare Brain Condition
14 Dec
Summary
- A new support group for Chiari malformation launched in northern England.
- The group aims to connect and support individuals affected by the rare condition.
- The condition involves the lower brain pushing into the spinal canal.
A compassionate mother has established a vital support network for individuals grappling with Chiari malformation, a rare neurological condition. Julia Brannigan initiated the group in Guiseley, collaborating with the Ann Conroy Trust, to foster a sense of community and understanding for those impacted.
Motivated by her son's recent diagnosis, Brannigan recognized the profound isolation that can accompany such rare conditions, especially when awareness among medical professionals is limited. The group, the first of its kind in the north of England, held its inaugural meeting in Leeds on November 27, drawing participants from across Yorkshire and Lancashire.
