Ever wondered about our member support groups - how they got started, what conditions they represent, what they do, what all those abbreviations stand for? Wonder no more! With each newsletter, we will be featuring one of our support groups, finding out more about the group's history, the services it provides, the condition associated with the group, and what it is like to live with that condition...

This month, we've been lucky enough to hear from members of two groups - Madison Wilson Thorp has shared his story of living with Tourette's Syndrome (more about the Tourette's Syndrome Association of Victoria here), and Doug tells us a bit about his life and times with the Spina Bifida Foundation of Victoria.

Can't get enough of our stories? Browse through some of our past "Meet our Members" features, and get to know some of the amazing people and groups who make up this Genetic Support Network...
