Bristol Christmas meet up Members have organised a family Christmas meet up on Sunday 9th December, at 12pm, meeting at The Mall, Cribbs Causeway for an afternoon and evening of winter fun!

Starting at The Mall, Cribbs Causeway, where there will be an opportunity to spend time at Winter Wonderland which includes Ice Skating on the largest outdoor ice rink in the South West, Santas Enchanted Ice Grotto and Vintage Fairground Rides.

For those more interested in shopping than skating, The Mall is an ideal place with lots of different stores.

After that we will head over the road to Hollywood Bowl before lastly sitting down to eat in the evening.

Would be great to catch up with everyone and have some fun before Christmas.

For more information see the Facebook events page.

The LPUK Youth Team have arranged a meet up at the Nottingham Christmas Market on Saturday 1st December at 11:30am.

They will meet at the left lion, opposite the Council Houses at 11:30am, waiting until 11:45am before leaving to visit the market and go for food afterwards. (If you are running late on the day, you can contact LPUK on 07925893398 and we can let you know where people are.)

For members to go alone they must be 16 years and above, younger members can attend, but must be accompanied by an adult.

LPUK are not making any bookings and will not take responsibility for anyone's actions. Attendees must make their own travel arrangements, pay for own food and activities undertaken (should you want to on the day). No alcohol will be consumed by any LPUK representatives (i.e. Youth Team members) on the day.

Please let us know if you want to come along.

We'd love to see you before Christmas for a festive get together!

I am a 15 year old GCSE Product Design student at Malmesbury Secondary School. As part of my project I am designing something to help people complete tasks around the house with dwarfism, especially achondroplasia. I am interested in designing something for people with dwarfism because I do not believe there are many products on the market that meet their needs. In order to generate suitable concepts, I need to carry out research on my clientele. I have a few questions that would greatly help me complete my research and design something that would help people with dwarfism.
