Who are ME Foggy Dog?
Team Foggy | ME Foggy Dog
Sally, 'Foggy's P.A', is an award-winning social entrepreneur with both of her social enterprises (not for profit) - ME Foggy Dog and Stripy Lightbulb CIC (an online training company about ME/CFS
M.E./C.F.S. Training for Professionals - Stripy Lightbulb CIC).
Sally has had M.E/C.F.S since 2006 and is now a global patient advocate.
Be in no doubt, holding this May 12 - International M.E Awareness Day virtual event will be a challenge for Sally due to her very limited energy. Hosting this event solo IS her fundraising challenge.
Cure ME/MECFS biobank are AWESOME! Their research and resources have global reach and so any money donated will benefit ME/CFS patients around the world. It is estimated that Covid19 will trigger around 10 million new cases of ME/CFS globally and so the need for research funding is even more desperate than before the pandemic. At exactly the same time as the need increasing - the UK Government is reducing Government medical research funding.
£10 covers the cost of freezer storage of blood samples from one participant for 5 years.
£50 covers the cost of room rental for five clinical assessments by our trained research nurses.
£250 covers the cost of virological and immunological analysis for one study participant.
Please donate if you can, prior to Covid19 there were an estimated 17-30 million ME/CFS patients worldwide - it was a global health crisis.
Post-Covid19, it will be a health emergency.
Thank you.
