    Thanks very much to those who remember ME & CFS causes in their wills. I see the ME Association got £355690 in 2015 and £433082 in 2016, both more than donations/fund-raised money combined. The 25% Group got £180000 in 2015-6.

    Together we can make a difference.

    Completely agree with the positive thanks in the first post... feel a bit sorry for those who donate to Action for ME in the hope of helping people though.

    I was just reading on Action for ME’s Instagram that one quarter of total charitable donations in the UK (i.e. generally rather than specifically with regard to M.E.) are from bequests.

    Yes I’ve done a bequest and it’s definitely not going to AFME
