Question.....
I've been thinking of starting up an EMF meetup group as there are times (often) where I could really do with talking to someone who can relate to what I'm going through and I'm sure there are others that feel the same. The problem of course would be location as wi-fi is everywhere and I know that not everyone is able to travel easily. Has this topic been discussed before? What do you all think? Are there any ES meetup groups anywhere else in the world? I'm in Birmingham, UK. -Diane [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] |
There have been a couple of meetups of small groups in the UK - usually a
mix of ES and MCS sufferers and supportive friends. Mainly in the wilds of Wales! As you say, the tricky things are finding an environmentally benign location and for people to be able to travel. Well worth asking the question though. Isolation is one of the big problems of ES...

Hi Ian
How are these groups organised? Is it though the ES yahoo page? -DianeUK ________________________________ From: Ian Kemp <[hidden email]> To: [hidden email] Sent: Mon, July 12, 2010 9:22:05 PM Subject: RE: [eSens] UK Meetup Group?

Hi Stephen
Well Belgium was a bit further afield than I was thinking *smiles* but after sitting here for a few minutes I'm thinking thats not such a crazy idea. I've been to Belgium before just for fun so why not go for health reasons? Not had much response to this post so I don't think there are many who are too keen on meeting up which is a shame. (sniffle). If anyone else is interested in meeting up in the UK (or anywhere else!) please let me know.

Diane, Yes, I kinda have the same feeling... Would be much nicer if we could meet and discuss in real life! I'm from Belgium (from Eeklo) and if there would be some enthusiasm I could arrange it at my house (out of the city) or use a low emf location... If you take the ferry from Ramsgate it's quite fast you get to my place (1 hour from Ostend), but for you, from Birmingham, it will be quite a trip, unless you're on vacation... I think I could convince Charles to come too. He only lives like 1.5 hours from my place. I know somebody else in Belgium, an ES-er he would come too I think. But I suppose you would like to have it organized in UK?! Well probably there are more ES-ers from eSens in UK than in Belgium/France/Germany/Netherlands... let me know what you think, and if you had a lot of reactions on this post of others who want to come? greets, Stephen. --- In [hidden email], MJQ 7688 <mjq7688@...> wrote: > > Question..... > > I've been thinking of starting up an EMF meetup group as there are times >(often) > where I could really do with talking to someone who can relate to what I'm >going > through and I'm sure there are others that feel the same.

Hi Diane, the previous meetups were organised through personal contact,
particularly by people who know each other through the Electrosensitivity-UK trust. Some of them are in this Yahoo group and should see this, so hopefully can reply with further details.
