Hynt is a new national access scheme that works with theatres and arts centres in Wales to make sure there is a consistent offer available for visitors with an impairment or specific access requirement, and their carers or personal assistants. The site will tell you all you need to know about Hynt: who it’s for; what it provides; and how to become a member.
Members are entitled to a free-of-charge ticket for their personal assistant or carer when attending performances at any of the Hynt theatres or arts centres.

Glycogen Storage Disease (GSD) support group
People attending the NeuroMuscular Centre have numerous, but typically rare conditions. There are other focused support groups that offer something different and complimentary to the NMC. One such group is the Association for Glycogen Storage Diseases UK.
The group was formed thirty years ago in 1986 by two mothers who both had a child with a rare Glycogen Storage Disease (GSD) The group has grown over the years and has funded early research in to treatments and therapies. The Association is run, informed and supported by its members and they aim to provide a warm welcome to anyone diagnosed with a GSD including McArdles and Pompe . As with many neuromuscular conditions, the chances are they have had a long and difficult journey to diagnosis. The group has a Pompe Support Team, a group of people with Pompe who are willing to provide a listening ear or talk about common experiences. For more information visit www.agsd.org.uk.
