The ME Association

The ME Association is a leading charity in the UK dedicated to supporting individuals affected by Myalgic Encephalomyelitis (ME), also known as Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS). Established in 1989, the organization has been at the forefront of advocacy, research, and support for those living with this debilitating condition.

Our mission is to improve the quality of life for people with ME/CFS through various initiatives. We provide a wealth of resources, including information leaflets, online support groups, and a helpline staffed by trained volunteers who understand the challenges faced by patients.

In addition to direct support, The ME Association actively engages in research funding to advance the understanding of ME/CFS. We collaborate with medical professionals and researchers to promote evidence-based treatments and raise awareness about the condition.

We also advocate for better healthcare policies and practices that address the needs of those with ME/CFS. Our campaigns aim to educate healthcare providers and the public about the realities of living with this illness.

Through our community events, we foster a sense of belonging and empowerment among individuals affected by ME/CFS. We believe in the importance of sharing experiences and building connections to combat the isolation often felt by patients.

As a registered charity, we rely on donations and fundraising efforts to sustain our work. Every contribution helps us continue our vital services and expand our reach to more individuals in need.

Join us in our mission to create a world where those with ME/CFS receive the understanding, support, and care they deserve.
