The charity that cares for those in the region affected by Myalgic Encephalopathy (ME) or Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS) has a new website designed to cover the latest local and national news and developments in an easily understood format.

The organisation soon to mark its 30th year is supported by some of the leading medical professionals in the field who contribute regularly to the charity’s work.

ME sometimes follows a viral infection or trauma and affects around 6,000 adults and children across Sussex including a significant number of the LGBT+ community some of whom are virtually housebound and in need of care.

Sussex ME Society chairman and former bar manager Colin Barton, said: ”We have seen much progress over the years both in the recognition and treatment of the illness but there is still some way to go before those affected receive services equal to that afforded to those with other neurological disorders”.
