Since our launch in 2004, OCD-UK have been working to host and facilitate events giving the OCD community the opportunity to listen to, and question keynote experts in the field.
We hosted another of these events from on Sunday 12th July 2009 with Canadian OCD expert, Dr Adam Radomsky.
The 'Audience with' events take two forms.
Part 1 - Keynote lecture by Dr Radomsky about OCD and Memory and looking at new ways of thinking about checking and contamination and why research is so important to help improve treatments for OCD.
Break - Opportunity for you to mingle with other sufferers.
Part 2 - Q+A session, an opportunity for members of the audience to ask their questions about OCD to Dr Radomsky.
The event was a huge success with our room full, the audience listened intently as Adam engaged them, and then they took the opportunity to fire all sorts of OCD relevant questions at him.
