AN UPCOMING meeting will allow ICD and pacemaker patients to come together for a support group.

The Bolton ICD support group is set to be held on Thursday, November 28 at 7pm.

It will be held in the Parish Church Old School close to Bolton Parish Church on Churchgate.

The event will be the annual Christmas meeting with games, a quiz and a free pasty and peas supper.

Attendees can chat to and compare notes with other members about their experiences.

ICD and pacemaker patients along with cardiac arrhythmia and heart failure patients and their carers would benefit in particular.
