We fund vital innovative biomedical studies to ignite research into ME/CFS

Story

Running an ultra marathon is an incredibly challenging and rewarding experience. It is much longer than a standard marathon and can involve climbing mountains, navigating rugged terrain, and running in hot, cold, and wet conditions. 

It requires a great deal of mental and physical preparation, and the rewards come from pushing yourself to your physical and mental limits.

Those that suffer from ME would not be able to complete anything close to this and for this reason, I will be pushing myself beyond my limits to raise money for this much-needed research.

"....doctors do not treat us and science does not study us. How could a disease this common and this devastating have been forgotten by medicine?" Jennifer BreaME Research UK believes that only biomedical research can find the causes of ME/CFS, improve diagnosis and treatment, and, ultimately, arrive at a cure. That’s why research is our focus. We've awarded 57 grants since 2000 and invested over £2.2million. But research is expensive and becoming more so every day. That’s the challenge we face, and that’s why we need your help.
