About Us

Our core mission is to provide sympathetic support to ME/CFS and FMS sufferers, their family and friends, giving up to date information, advice aand guidance on all aspects of the illness. Through shared experience and united action we are an informed conduit to the medical, social services and other professionals. We promote a wider awareness and deeper understanding of the illness and its effects on all age groups.

The Group is run by a democratically elected Committee of generous and committed volunteers and has acquired a formidable array of patrons over the years.

We hold meetings for the main group every month either at Deeside Community Centre or at the Windmill Restaurant in Buckley. Once a year the meeting at the Windmill is our AGM. We held our AGM this year on 12th August and celebrated our 14th Birthday. We also hold other events such as picnics and conferences.

One of our main objectives at present is to reach out to younger people with ME/CFS and to support them in the ways they feel they need. Meetings for the Youth Section are held monthly in Prestatyn and are a chance for both the young people and their parents to get together (don't worry kids - parents are banished to another room).

Thanks to the help of Flintshire Local Voluntary Council we are a registered charity (No.1093718)

You can meet us at Flintshire Local Voluntary Council's Shotton Resource Centre (CRISP CENTRE on Shotton High St.) on a Wednesday between 12 and 3.

We are in contact with WAMES which is the Welsh Association of ME & CFS Support and other ME support groups.
