A NEW voluntary-run group has launched on Portland where people can get their legs looked after.
Nurses at Royal Manor Healthcare are providing community-based treatment in a non-clinical environment at the Community 2000 hall in Easton every Thursday. No appointments are necessary.
Members will be treated collectively on a drop-in basis once a week between 9am-12pm to have their dressings changed.
Other leg clubs have seen improved healing rates, improved morale and a reduction in pain.
If you find yourself with a lower leg problem, and are concerned, you are welcome to drop by.
The nurses will be available for leg ulcer management, advice or treatment.
If you are interested in becoming a volunteer call 01305 820422.
