Welcome to Blaenau Gwent Leg Club.
The club is an innovative and evidence based initiative that provides community based treatments, health promotion, education and ongoing care for people of all ages who are experiencing leg related problems.
The Leg Club and the District Nursing Teams work in a unique partnership with patients (members), GP’s and the local community. Working to best practice guidelines, they provide a high standard of care in a social and friendly setting that promotes understanding, peer support and informed choices.
The emphasis of the Lindsay Leg Club Foundation © movement is to empower members to participate in their own care, in a social environment that eases loneliness by providing congenial surroundings where old friends can meet and new friendships can be formed.
