This seminar aims to heighten public awareness of practical alterntative treatment options available.
This public seminar takes place on Saturday, September 25th , in the Education and Research Centre on the grounds of Our Lady’s Hospice, Harold’s Cross, Dublin. Click here to view a Timetable of Events.
