President’s Report Reports |

President’s Report (continued)GrantsI have acknowledged above two grants which have assisted our youth wing to undertake several useful initiatives. We also secured in 2002 a grant from the Sunshine Foundation to enable us to explore ways of better targeting self-management courses to meet the needs of people with ME/CFS. Trying to acquit this in fact turned into something of an epic. Several volunteers for a leaders’ training course dropped out at the last minute on more than one occasion. After stretching the goodwill of the Foundation with several extensions we amended our approach and a number of members are now undertaking the basic self-management course run by the Arthritis Foundation. We will hold a review meeting in December and pass on any recommendations to the course managers.
