Convention is back! We’re so excited for our annual event of learning and support for families affected by rare growth conditions and concerns.

 

We look forward to seeing familiar faces and welcoming new attendees joining too as we all come together for our special CGF weekend, with extra time planned in this year for those who’d like to network and socialise with others.
