If your Health Care Professional needs some education in fibromyalgia you can request that an FMA UK Health Professionals Pack is sent out to them. All we need is the name of the Health CareProfessional and the address of their practice. We will then send a pack to their surgery addressed from us to them.

You can request a medical pack using this form.

We are appealing for further trustees to aid the running of FMA UK. Expertise is currently needed in finance, fundraising and publicity.  We already have volunteers contributing to these areas, but are seeking trustees to take responsibility for the overarching administration and development.

Trustee meetings are held monthly via Skype and last about 2 hours.  There is an annual meeting that coincides with our group leaders’ meeting over a weekend.

You can find a Support Group near you by contacting the Regional Coordinator for your area. If there does not happen to be a support group near you then maybe you can join with some other members and set one up. Support groups provide a social benefit as well as the opportunity to share tips on coping with fibro. They come in all shapes and sizes and we are often told how they have helped people.
