What we’re about

Meetup for support with other local sufferers and survivors of the oesophageal disorder, Achalasia. Achalasia is diagnosed when the esophagus is less able to move food toward the stomach and the valve from the oesophagus to the stomach does not relax as much as it needs to during swallowing.

The London Achalasia Monthly Meetup
Online
The Achalasia Action monthly Meetups originally met in London and enabled anyone with achalasia to meet and learn from others how to manage the condition. Now we meet online so that anyone with achalasia can join in with the discussions, wherever they live. It is really helpful to hear about the experiences of others and learn lots of helpful tips as well as sharing a common bond.

Every meeting is different as they all depend on the mix of people attending, so you can learn something new every time!

Looking forward to meeting you.

All the best

The Achalasia Action Central London In Person Meetup
Location not specified yet
Hi Everyone,

We are continuing with our in person meetings in London, as they are working well.

The Achalasia Action monthly Meetups were originally all held in London and enabled anyone with achalasia to meet and learn from others how to manage the condition. Since COVID we have been meeting online so that anyone with achalasia can join in with the discussions, wherever they live. It is really helpful to hear about the experiences of others and learn lots of helpful tips as well as sharing a common bond.

Every meeting is different as they all depend on the mix of people attending, so you can learn something new every time!

If you are interested in meeting in Central London on 18th January or a future date please let me know.

We are keeping the numbers small at first while we gauge the number of people interested and the venues for the meetings. It is important that everyone who signs up for a meeting, attends or changes their rsvp no later than 24 hours beforehand, so that we keep numbers at a workable level.

It is likely that we will meet in the Marble Arch area, but I will let you know the exact details the day before the meeting.

Looking forward to hearing from you.

All the best
