Do you fancy setting up a support group? (we can help)

People with ME need help and understanding from other people in the same situation. They can support one another, make new friends and be proactive in campaigning to get ME recognised in their own locality should they wish,

ME North East work with existing local ME support groups, help to establish groups in areas not presently covered and help groups to help themselves and one another to promote the needs of ME.

Why join a support group?

Because it can:

Stop you feeling isolated

Offer empathy and understanding

Offer helpful advice on treatments and remedies

Help you make new friends

Provide a confidential and sympathetic listening ear

Help you support one another

Provide an opportunity to meet and share information

Provide a social environment for coffee and a chat

Help to arrange speakers,workshops and social events, for current and forthcoming events

If you would like a local ME group or wish to help set one up – please get in touch – we would love to hear from you.
