BACME's (British Association for CFS/ME) website has been down for ages, I'd thought, but now it's up again, and it's quite strange. Here it is: https://www.bacme.info/
The first weirdness is its huge, colourful main-page banner of lively, fully able people and mostly children jumping and playing in a park.
This is their idea of patients? Are they nuts?
There are other oddities, but here's another on their page of patient support-groups: https://www.bacme.info/patient-support-groups
The full list of groups is this:
So it's AYME, which no longer exists; AfME, the only ME/CFS UK charity, apart from AYME, not to come out clearly against PACE; a single local group, whose advisors include Esther Crawley; and reMEmber, who I don't know anything about.
No ME Association, which is extraordinary. Are you aware of this, @Russell Fleming?
