Re: First of new monthly communications!

Greetings!

I am very pleased to let you know that at the last EDF Board meeting, the Board decided that there would be regular monthly communication from the Board to members. From now on you will receive a short update email each month from a Board member about matters of interest – for instance, about developments amongst member organisations, issues relating to dystonia in Europe or about the deliberations of the Board itself.

General Assembly 2007

At the Assembly in October 2007 there was an interesting session on how delegates would like to see EDF develop. As promised, the delegates’ comments are included as an attachment for your interest.

Address list of members

Please also find attached a list of contact details for EDF member organisations. Do let me know if there are any omissions or errors.

EDF Board meeting next week

The Board is meeting this weekend in Brussels. If there are any matters that you would like the Board to consider, please let me know by lunchtime on Friday, 25^th April 2008.

Please let me know if there are……

1. any other representatives in your country who would like to receive the monthly updates but are not on the circulation list above
2. Any amendments required to recipient names or to the contact details for your country.
3. Any matter you would like discussed by the Board at the next meeting.

Many thanks and very best wishes

Philip Eckstein

EDF Board Secretary
