A unique service that combines support and information.

The service specialises in providing illness-specific information on a wide range of issues, and will help you find other agencies with relevant expertise – particularly in the areas of benefits and education. This comprises trained volunteers working part-time from their own homes who offer support to people who have recently discovered they have the illness, those who are finding it difficult to cope, and many others affected by ME/CFS. Many of the ME Connect volunteers have ME/CFS themselves. 

 The ME Association is a member of the Telephone Helplines Association and ME Connect was nominated for the BT Telephone Helplines Association Awards in the category "The best use of technology to improve access for service users".
