Janan (aka Pocket Rocket) was brave to take part in a charity boxing match to raise funds for FMA UK. It took place on Saturday 1/11/14 at Saturday at Preston North End Stadium,
Janan said after the match:
Just to update you in my charity boxing match, I raised £375 for FMAUK, the bonus was I won my charity boxing match. It will rank as one of the toughest things I have done, it was one heck of a fight, very close on points with us both exchanging punches. Opponent and I both rocked in the ring,both of us raising money for different charities, we both won on the night. It was an experience that still hasn't quite sunk in.
Our thanks goto Janan for the fundraising effort, the awareness that has been raised and the dedication to take part in this sort of event on behalf of 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.
