In this brief exploratory paper, we consider a free group based method of error correction. We present our method, which makes use of the universal property of free groups (UPFG). Through example  we show that, in certain scenarios, our method of error correction is more efficient and more deterministic than minimum distance error correction. We argue that our method works well under specific conditions that have been shown to be met by certain neural systems. We hope that this might interest others in the role free groups might play in understanding how error correction of neural codes works.
