Form a Group

If you want to take a more active part in AIPh’s work, then join a group or you can form one in your school, community or locality. The local groups are focal points of our membership activities, particularly for awareness raising, letterwriting, campaigning and local fundraising.

AIPh has 27 local groups in 10 regions, and more than a hundred individuals coming from diverse backgrounds.
