Thank you to all those of you who sponsored my London Loop Walk last summer. As well as meeting people that needed to know about fibromyalgia nearly £300 was raised for FMA UK.
We already have several people taking on events to raise awareness and funds this year through marathons and the British 10k in London in July. It is through the support of people like them that we are able to continue the work of getting information to those that require it free of charge.
We still cannot do all the things we want to do and have had to cut back on some of our activities with medical professionals, but we appreciate that we are fortunate to have people supporting us so that we can continue at our current level. So a big thank you to all our supporters.
Pam on behalf of all at FMA UK

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.
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.
