Following a recommendation by Harsha’s rheumatology nurse, we have found a new venue for our coffee and chats.  From January next year (2013) we will be meeting at The Courtyard Restaurant, 20 New Road, Brighton. We believe that this location will be quieter than Starbucks, there are three disabled parking spaces in front and it has a good selection of food/lunches. We also feel that we will be doing our bit to support a local independent business. After putting this suggestion to the whole group we have agreed to go ahead and change venues next year.
