​Thyroid Friends Day at the Seaside and Butterfly Ball
Sunday 25 May 2025   
midday to 7pm
Broadstairs seafront and bandstand

​Please see www.justgiving.com/page/world-thyroid-day-broadstairs
​
Join Lorraine Williams and Thyroid Friends for a fun day at the seaside on World Thyroid Day!
Broadstairs is just over an hour by high-speed train from London St Pancras.
Meeting at midday, at the central steps above Viking Bay for a briefing and orientation.

​Enjoy a stroll around the delightful seaside town of Broadstairs, take on a butterfly challenge that suits your ability if you’d like to - and walk or run along the coast and perhaps ask your friends and family to sponsor you for that.
Get in touch if you’d like details of a route suggestion taking in key Broadstairs landmarks that spell out the word THYROID (don’t miss the Inflatable Giraffe!)
During the afternoon, visit Havisham and Cratchit cafe and the dreamy garden at Bleak House for some butterfly themed snacks and chat with your thyroid friends.
The Butterfly Ball at Broadstairs Bandstand, overlooking Viking Bay, with DJ Johnny Henfrey from Neptune’s Hall,
kicks off at 5pm until 7pm. Bring your dancing feet.

TTT Events and Webinars

Awareness Events

Find our about the International and UK Thyroid Awareness Weeks here. And Thyroid Cancer Awareness Month here.
We normally meet regularly in central London. During the Covid19 pandemic, we are running online events instead.

View our full Events Listings.

Everyone is welcome to join us at our events, including friends, family and interested professionals. However, as a UK charity we do have a requirement that you are resident in the UK to join our online discussions, since it could become confusing if people were to start talking about healthcare systems in different countries. We are a friendly bunch and simply ask all attendees to adhere to our "ground rules".
​
Refreshments: tea, coffee and herbal tea are normally provided at our events and we usually also have some nice biscuits.  Our online events usually include comfort breaks, where you can enjoy refreshments of your choice in your own space. 

​Please book your place for any of our events, including online events, via the booking links below, so we can manage numbers and send out feedback forms and any follow up information afterwards.
​
Contact us to let us know if you have an idea for a future speaker or meeting topic you would like us to try and arrange. 
​
Our events programme is supported by the National Lottery Awards for All and Reaching Communities Fund. If you've ever bought a lottery ticket - thank you!
