Give today, change tomorrow

 

Dear Miriam

Like you, we know that significant change is needed for people with ME, and it is needed now.

At Action for ME, we know that change doesn’t just happen – it has to be made. That’s why, this year we are running a Summer Appeal and hoping to raise  £25,000  to fund vital change for people affected by ME.

With your help, we can achieve:

  • Changes to our scientific understanding of ME, through more  high-quality  research. 
  • Changes to the  help and support available  to adults, children and their loved ones.
  • Changes in  attitudes towards ME  – including those of politicians, health and social care professionals and educators.

Donate or share this campaign between 20th - 30th June to bring much-needed change for people with ME.

Spread the word

Tell your family, friends, neighbours or anyone who wants to see change for people with ME. If you are online, share our social media posts using the buttons below and help us spread our message of change even further.

Change for Frances

Alongside funding new biomedical research and working to change attitudes, our work also creates positive change for people like Frances, who used our Doctor and Information & Support Services:

“ME threatened everything about me that made me, me - my body, my mind, my relationships and my career. Action for ME has been there throughout, supporting me to hold these pieces together and to find myself again, albeit in a very different way of living.” 

All money raised will go towards our services and other projects, including research, to improve the lives of people affected by ME.

Thank you for your support,

Sonya Chowdhury, Chief Executive, Action for ME.

P.S. We know that costs are rising for everyone at the moment. We are so grateful for anything you can spare to help us create change for people affected by ME.

Don't let it expire..

 Hello

A couple of months ago, my exemption certificate expired, and I had no idea, so now I am in a pickle facing fines, I just wanted to let you know, so you can keep an eye on your exemption certificate if you have one.

Unlock the genius within with our nutrition.

 Hello

I have recently been on a journey to help me feel better.


I have cut out any foods or drinks, that contain ingredients that you cannot find in your cupboard, and I am better for it.


I found that foods that contain artificial sweeteners,  affect my mood, so they are gone.


You can get wholesome  food and drink, at reasonable prices.

I have a policy now, if I can't  find the ingredients on the label from ingredients you can find in a kitchen cupboard, I don' t eat it.


Give it a try, it might help.

On World ME Day, We Reflect on a Year of Remarkable Support Inbox Action for ME

 

Dear Miriam


On World ME Day, we like to take a moment to reflect on the past year and what we have achieved together.

Over the past year, your support has allowed us to:

  • Respond to over 1,170 enquiries to our Information & Support service, providing resources, guidance and reassurance to people affected by ME
  • Provide long-term support to 23 families with a child with ME
  • Train hundreds of professionals on how best to support a person with ME
  • Catalyse new research projects helping further understanding of ME

And so much more!

We also wanted to share the words of one of our service users, who describes the impact of our Information and Support Service:

“I was lost, alone, and feeling very scared and vulnerable. Now I don't feel so alone and I know what next steps to take. Thank you!”

Your support fuels stories like these. Together, we are working to improve every aspect of life with ME today, whilst taking action to secure change for tomorrow. 

Your kindness is making a real and lasting difference in the lives of people affected by ME.

With heartfelt gratitude from,

All of us at Action for ME

What are you eating and drinking?

 Hello


I have been going through my food and drink cupboard, to see what is added to the food and drinking I am eating, and its full of trash, so bit my bit, when I finish one thing, I get the healthier version, and am starting to improve.

I got the idea, from Jessie the Glucose Goddess, her book is on the top right hand side of this blog page.


She says, by changing your diet and what you drink, you can improve your brain and energy health, we all need that.


I hope this helps.
