Our Support Services team organise a range of different events for community members to attend. Some events are virtual and others are in person, this is to ensure there are appropriate events for all individuals and families affected by leukodystrophy.
If you have any questions or if you’d like to attend an event, please email info@alextlc.org

Community Weekends

Our annual Community Weekend brings together leukodystrophy sufferers and their families, alongside doctors, researchers and scientists from around the world to discuss how leukodystrophies affect them and to build long lasting and supportive relationships. For more information, click here
