The York ME Community

The York ME Community is a patient group in York, UK.

Aims
This site is here to let you know that you are not alone, but that others in the York Community are here for you and happy to answer any questions you might have as much as our knowledge allows. This is for those who suffer with the illness, family, friends, or just the inquisitive.

The aim is to raise awareness and belief. Funding will then follow to help find treatments and eventually a cure for this beast. Although we will all have our stories to tell, and will ask and receive help with anything at all, I want this to be an outward looking site too. I want us all to do our little bit if we can, to raise awareness of ME, to get us up there with the coverage that the more ‘popular’ ills get in the media. I want to see a team of rugby players happy to wear pink tutu’s proud to be running for ME as they do for cancer and diabetes !! If we can all tell just one new person a month about ME, we will get there.

I am using what energy I have to approach sports clubs, businesses, entertainment venues, York Council, local MPs and others in the York area to support The York ME Community which consists of their friends, families and neighbours, and to be there for them.
