Daytime Support Sessions
We understand the difficulties that some people have in travelling to evening venues especially in winter. With this in mind we run monthly support sessions on a Tuesday morning at Carrs Lane Church Centre in the centre of Birmingham (opposite the back entrance of Marks & Spencers). The directions and dates for these support session at Carrs Lane are given below. These are small, informal sessions when two of our members will be on hand to offer support, information and advice to anyone with tinnitus. Family and friends are welcome. They are held on:The second Tuesday of each month from 10.30 until 12 noon
