We are excited to be combining the power of our organisations and strengthening the services we offer. During 2022 we plan to scale up our provision of clinician-led, holistic health and wellbeing support to help more people with M.E. and their families. @actionforme
The 4th episode of our Learn About M.E podcast is now live. In this episode, we hear from medical students about their experience of learning about ME/CFS in their medical schools.

🔴Epstein-Barr virus (#EBV) can play a key role in causing #MS, a recent study showed.
EBV is known to play a role in causing some cases of #MEcfs (through causing glandular fever).
#DecodeME will look for evidence that genetic factors make EBV more likely to trigger ME/CFS.🧬

The last years made us very wary of hugging. Yet, hugging is important esp for #pwME. It can reduce stress improve our heart health.
Today on #NationalHugDay we encourage you to let your dearest know that you’re there for them with a (virtual) hug lifting their spirits #MECFS
“The letters/emails sent after each appointment summarising what was discussed are invaluable, thank you so much. Everything about the services at the Trust are so well thought out to meet all the needs of patients with ME. This immediately makes one feel welcome […],not alone.”
A new survey has been launched looking for experiences of transcutaneous vagus nerve stimulation by #pwme
Please share widely, this is an international study so can be completed across the world!

We are thrilled to have received such a large number of applications to join our final workshops, however this does mean we won't be able to select everyone.
We're aiming to let all applicants know if they've been selected by the end of January.
