Following a series of successful social media posts last year, we have developed an A to Z poster showing the alphabet of common symptoms, experiences, and comorbidities of ME/CFS - showing that it's a lot more than just feeling 'tired'.

We encourage all those who are able, to use this week as an opportunity to share our posts with your colleagues, friends, and family - whether in-person or online - so the community they know that they are not alone.
