Action for M.E.'s annual AGM and conference offers a valuable opportunity to share your views and experiences with others affected by M.E., meet Action for M.E. staff, Trustees and volunteers, and hear more about the services and support we can offer you and your family.
You are welcome to attend for all or part of the day (please state this when booking your ticket); we look forward to meeting you.
The venue is fully accessible but please do let us know if you have any questions about this; a separate quiet room with chairs is provided should you need to take a break.
Supporting children with M.E.
We want to offer the best possible information and support service for children and young people living with M.E., building on the existing work of our expert Children's Services Team. To do this, we need your help to understand what is needed, so that we can design a service that reduces isolation, increases knowledge and awareness, and ensures equality of care for children with M.E. and their families. At this conference, young people, their parents and professionals that work with them will lead a consultation session, asking you to share your views and experiences.
Jen Brea's M.E. documentary, Unrest
This year, Action for M.E. is thrilled to present a screening of this award-winning film (running time 97 minutes) by US film-maker Jen Brea, who became ill with M.E. when she was studying for a PhD at Harvard. "It’s my hope that we can build a movement to transform the lives of patients with M.E.; accelerate the search for a cure; and bring a greater level of compassion, awareness, and empathy to millions upon millions of patients and their loved ones wrestling chronic illness or invisible disabilities," she says.
