What Is The #DearMinister Postcard Campaign?


We’re sending postcards (or a letter if you prefer!) to key UK government ministers in charge of departments related to biomedical research funding, calling for fair funding for biomedical ME/CFS research!

When To Send Your Postcard?


ME Awareness Day is on 12th May, so on or close to this date!

If you use an online service to send a postcard like Moonpig, then you can write it now and have it delivered on the right day!
