Some of these support groups can be found on the service specific pages on this website, others are included in the local and national information pages that follow.
In Shropshire, Telford and Wrekin there is a specific Community Directory that provides local people with links to many different groups and organisations that can provide support and advice - there is even a specific self help section in the directory.
There are also a range of national organisations that provide specific support and advice for conditions, you can find this information on the NHS Choices website.
