Welcome to the Women's Wellness Weekend 2015!
Let us be the first to extend a warm and enthusiastic welcome to the 4th bi-annual Wellness for Women
Weekend! We are excited to have you here, one woman to another.
This conference was created for women, by women, and is designed for you to engage with other women
from the inherited bleeding disorders community. This is the ONLY women’s conference on inherited bleeding
disorders in Ontario. We want you to join us in feeling proud by celebrating, sharing, and learning all things
“woman”.
This weekend has been designed, through individual breakout sessions, to fit the needs of women throughout
various stages of their life, from young adulthood, to motherhood, through to the golden years. We encourage
you to seek out your own purpose for attending this conference and connect with other fearless females.
We would like to thank our planning committee and staff, who dedicated their time and passionate thoughts,
to our cause and for our community. We’d also like to thank the pharmaceutical companies, Baxter and
Octapharma for their generous donations, but most importantly, we want to thank you for joining us!
Together, we are all focused and determined to make a difference for the future of women affected by
inherited bleeding disorders.
Enjoy, relax, and take care.
All the best,
Laura Tomkins
