WHO ARE WE? – A charity supporting those with M.E / C.F.S or Fibromyalgia. We have been established since 1988, revived and renamed in 2004 / 2005 by a small group of volunteers with personal experience of M.E or Fibromyalgia who wanted to see change. Whether you suffer from the debilitating effects of Myalgic Encephalomyelitis, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome or Fibromyalgia, (more commonly referred to as M.E / C.F.S) or are supporting a family member or friend we hope you will find us informative and friendly.
We also welcome all in the medical field, social services, benefit agencies and support agencies as our aim is to raise awareness and services for people with these conditions. MESiG covers all ‘CF’ postcodes and further afield.
WHAT DO WE OFFER? – A support group meeting once a month on first Monday 2-3.30pm in Bethel Church Community Centre, Llangranog Rd, Llanishen, Cardiff, CF14 5BJ.
We publish a newsletter twice a year with latest info and events.
We offer home visits to those unable to get out.
We raise awareness and hold fundraisers.
We arrange for speakers to come and talk about relevant topics.
We help with form filling and lifts to appointments.
We send group emails with the latest information and reminders.
WHY DO WE DO IT? – There is very little information available for people battling this illness and their Carers.
ME is a real illness as documented by the World Health Organisation. It is a Neurological condition with a physical cause. We state this because there is still alot of ignorance surrounding the condition which simply highlights the need for research and funding.
