Thanks for all of your comments. It's nice to see that there is some interest and I'm not barking up the wrong tree, some great ideas I though perhaps a pub skittles night or something would work so that people have an activity that they can chat over. If I could make a suggestion? If there are people out there who would be happy to take the lead on organising something, if you were to contact your local DAFNE centre with some details they should hopefully be able to send out emails and possibly letters to the other local graduates to let them know.

Our local healthcare people are going to try and get our graduates together every year, They said we will get more and more people each year as more people complete Dafne. This will only be once a year though but should still be useful.

I've been very lucky with the group I did DAFNE with - we've met up once and another meet is planned for next month - plus we all have each others mob numbers/e-mails, which is nice :-)

Oooo lovely! What sort thing would you like to do Emily2556?
Let's see about choosing something, perhaps promote it and see who comes along as well...? Smile

it would be great for others to get involved too, lets hope they read this post and get in touch then we can arrange something between us such as a carb counting lunch Laughing in a pub maybe to share experiences, get some help and help others. I have sent you a message with my contact details.

The more the merrier! Shall we pick a spot? Once we know what we're doing, can set up a thread on this forum and I'll promote it on the @DAFNEonline twitter feed if we like. Can promote others too when they come up! Smile

Well, still trying for a Norwich meal out.... still waiting for any decent interest to make itself known though. Sad

(If the link doesn't work, it's this: http://www.dafneonline.co.uk/forums/1/topics/755 - it's on page 3 of the General Discussion forum section)

As for any other projects... not heard of anything.

JWo and others your link in the previous post didn't work because you put speech marks around the website link, you don't need them and indeed they stop the link working. I have fixed your post so that it works but for future reference you need url=<website link> without speech marks around <website link>
