The ACT Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome Society

The Society exists to give support and help to people with ME/CFS, provide information about ME/CFS, Fibromyalgia and related illnesses and their treatment to members, medical practitioners and the public; and promote research.

The ACT ME/CFS Society is purely a voluntary organisation. We receive a grant from the ACT Government and the rest of our finances comes from membership subscriptions, donations and fundraising ventures.

We have an office at SHOUT (Self Help Organisations United Together), in the Pearce Community Centre, Collett Place.
