^{Myalgic Encephalomyelitis is a debilitating physical illness.}

If you think you have this disease, or you know some one with it, or you/they have already being diagnosed we are here to help you to cope if we can!!

Our membership is made up of sufferers and carers who together have a wide knowledge of the problems, physical, mental and practical, that are caused by this illness. A call or e-mail to anyone of our Help Line contacts will activate the Group's 'Helping Hands' network, to discover the best way for you to find the answers you need.

The group has a good working relationship with the local Health Authorities and together we are working to increase the knowledge of General Practitioners and Specialists in order to 'catch' this disease before it becomes established. Early diagnosis of ME / CFS is a key factor and increases the chances of recovery in an individual. BUT YOU CAN HELP YOURSELF.

We hope to develop a public awareness of the accumulation of minor symptoms that can lead to this disorder, particularly the inclination to ignore poor sleep patterns and fatigue signs, which are telling us that the body and mind are under stress and need an 'MOT' / overhaul. If you have less and less energy at the end of each day - something is wrong - STOP and get it attended to.

Do not put up with a disorder our forefathers may have suffered from in ignorance. Listen to what your body is saying - '' it may not be all in the mind!!'' Find out how to manage the illness - which in turn may help to alleviate your symptoms, make contact with our Help Line.

We have a comprehensive list of therapies and supportive supplements, which have helped ME and CFS sufferers in many ways. These treatments can also assist in the strengthening of your constitution and may help to alleviate the side effects of orthodox medicines.
