You're not alone
Together we can make a difference
As we know, people with ME/CFS often feel isolated physically, emotionally, and socially and the ME Association does all it can to help ensure they never feel alone.
Together, we support and encourage each other every step of the way so nobody need face ME alone.
Through the coming year, the ME Association will highlight how every donation, story shared, and act of support helps build a stronger, more
compassionate community as we actively raise more funding for our work.
No one should face ME/CFS in isolation. Support means understanding, care, research, and hope. Every voice, every donation, every act of kindness counts.
Regular giving, donations, legacies, MEA Membership, fundraising through events and creative activities help fund all of the MEA’s work as we support those alone and affected; fund research, and educate and influence a wide eco-system.
