ACT

May Awareness is the ACT ME/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome Society’s annual campaign to raise funds for research and to continue our support for those people with ME/CFS/FMS, their families and carers.

People with ME/CFS and FMS are faced with many challenges. These long term illnesses affect social and family life as well as education and employment. Many are too unwell to work and others can only work part time.

Young people at school or college require special consideration for attendance, assignment deadlines and exams.  Some study at home through distance education.

                                   BUY PRODUCTS FOR SALE

The ACT ME/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome Society has a small range of products for sale to assist in our awareness raising and fundraising.  Society pens, wrist bands and button badges are available for sale all year around.

     Please help support the vital work of the ACT ME/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome Society. 

                                                      We are here to help.

                                                Thank you for your support.

The Support Group generally meets on the first Tuesday of the month. Meetings are informative, interactive sessions led by a guest speaker.  As well, there is always time for a friendly chat over a cup of tea or coffee.  All people with an interest in ME/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and/or Fibromyalgia  are welcome.
