Membership gives you access to our one to one and group support services, along with the option to join our contact book so you can make pen and phone friends. We send you out a quarterley newsletter with information and news. You can also access our member’s only coffee afternoons and have some social time with other members of No Panic over the phone. If you’re looking for information on our contact book service, the information and application form is available through the my account section of this website.
We hope that you can find support, information and answers to many of your questions surrounding these disorders and, in time, make a full recovery like many of our members have.
