St James Drop-in Day - Leeds City Centre

Next event is at Eversheds, Bridgewater Place, in the centre of Leeds.  Eversheds is the tallest building in Leeds – and it is within walking distance of the railway station.

Interesting programme of speakers as well as a number of practical workshops and displays by the key suppliers of
CPAP and peripheral equipment. (ResMed, Fisher & Paykel, Intus Healthcare and Hope2Sleep have  already confirmed that they will be joining us.)

Key talks will include;

The inner workings of your CPAP machine and the latest developments in technology. This will be given by Ed Politch, who has been a regular exhibitor at our events over the last two years.

Apnoea and achievement in sport. Johan Terpstra, from Intus Healthcare, will present this topic.

We are also hoping to have a member of the West Yorkshire Traffic Police to talk to us about Sleep Apnoea and road traffic accidents, but this has not yet been confirmed.

There will be workshops throughout the day on the following topics:

Mask cleaning

Mask Fitting (bring your own mask and headgear) for a “leak free” fit!
One to one consultations with members of the clinical team.
There will also be time to talk to other CPAP users and share experiences.

In order to raise funds there will be a number of stalls: Jams  and preserves; Home baking; Novelties;  Tombola.  

Tea and coffee will be available, free of charge, throughout the session. Please feel free to bring a  packed lunch.

The event will begin at 11.00 and will end at 3.00. We will spend a few minutes at lunchtime dealing with  the necessary administration issues of the AGM.
