Duncan Henry is walking the West Highland Way to raise funds for FMA UK. He tells us I have chosen this charity as my own wife suffers from Fibromyalgia and I can see how debilitating it can be. I am hoping that the funds I raise can help towards supporting the sufferers of this horrible condition and also the many family and friends that are also affected.
I am doing this event along with my brother Andrew and my cousin Hugh. They are raising funds for their own charities but we will be supporting each other along the way.

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.
