On this episode of the podcast I am fortunate to be joined by Karen, Emma and Oonagh to discuss their campaign group #ThereForME.

They came together to form #ThereForME following personal experiences of either living with ME, Long Covid and/or caring for partners with severe ME. They are a small group who are making a huge impact.

We talk about their roles within the campaign group, how they came together and what they have done in such a short space of time.

The group talk me through the campaign #FundThePlan which is raising awareness on a new delivery plan for ME that has been a work in progress for around 3 years for ME, looking at research, attitude and education and living with ME. The government has stated there are no plans to fund the plan, which will have a continuing impact around the lack of resources for ME. The #FundThePlan is something everyone can get involved with, by creating a short video asking Ashley Dalton and Wes Streeting to make a difference and #FundThePlan. If you are living with the condition (and are able), caring for someone or a supporter/advocate please take the time to create your #FundThePlan video. The templates and information can be found across the #ThereForME social media platforms the links can be found below, and if you aren't already please support and follow the group on social media.

To find out more have a listen to this episode, thank you for listening to the podcast, please share with anyone you feel it may help. As always take care #onedayatatime
