WMUK Regional Patient Summits

Bringing personalised support and expert information to your region in 2025

Four different summits for four different regions.

At WMUK, we know that WM experiences differ depending on where you’re living, and that’s why this year we’re taking our Patient Summit to each country in the UK.

Tickets for Scotland and Wales are now available. Get them here:

With experts from your country, and organisations working in your area, you’ll be given all the tools you need to live well with WM, no matter where you are in the UK. The events will be informal, with plenty of time to chat with speakers, representatives from support organisations and other attendees affected by WM.

Each Patient Summit will run from 10am-4pm, with agendas that have been specifically designed using feedback from people living with WM in your region.

Tickets are now available for Wales & Scotland.

We know that travel costs can be an obstacle to attending important face-to-face events like our Summits. If you’re wanting to attend but can’t because of the cost of travel or an overnight stay, we’re here to help. Our Regional Patient Summit Fund offers a one-off £75 grant to people who have bought a ticket to one of our Regional Summits or the Supporters’ Summit.

This fund is open to those who truly need it. To ensure our limited funds go where the need is greatest, we ask that you only apply if you would otherwise not be able to attend one of the Summits.

We also have a small number of free tickets for those that need them. These are on a request basis. Please enquire at info@wmuk.org.uk to find out more.
