All new members of the Association are sent an information pack and receive newsletters containing help and advice. Everyone joining is asked to complete a questionnaire. The information from these, which are identified by reference number only, is being collated and passed to a research neurologist for study if permission is given by the member.
New members are asked to supply a large SAE. £10 membership fee applies, and donations towards the cost of printing are also welcome. The group has information on the following:
- Commonly used drugs and remedies.
- Tips for treatment.
- Advice on sleep clinic referral.
- Facts on periodic limb movement disorder (PLMD).
