Enfield Group
"My name is Melissa, and I am the group leader of the Enfield Endometriosis UK Support Group. I am 21 years old. I was diagnosed with Endometriosis at 19, and have suffered since the age of 13.
I am very understanding of the illness, and the impact it has on everyday life, including jobs and relationships with friends, family and partners. I understand how isolating and alone you can feel.
I use to attend the meetings before I took over the group, and I want to give something back for the amazing support I received.
My aim for the group is to be an invaluable source of support and information with a group of ladies/friends who understand what we are each going through. The guest speakers I choose are ones who provide a positive message that there is ways to manage the illness and have a better quality of life.
The meetings are monthly and have a variety of guest speakers. These range from gynaecological doctors, pain management doctors, Pilate’s teacher, nutritionist, hypnotist and many more.
Friends, families and partners are always welcome to come along."
