Robert Grainger is raising money for ME Association

The ME Association campaigns hard to get ME recognised as a severe neurological illness. Our helpline provides essential information and support to adults and children who have ME/CFS, and to their families and carers. We also fund biomedical research into the physical nature and causes of ME/CFS.

Story

On 26 April 2026, I’ll be taking on the 14.6 mile Glasgow Kiltwalk to raise money for the ME Association.

I’m doing this for a cause that means a lot to me personally. My partner Megan lives with ME, and I see every day how much it affects her life. It’s not just tiredness. It can mean severe exhaustion, chronic pain, reduced mobility, and having to miss out on things most people take for granted. Some days even simple everyday tasks can be a huge struggle.

ME is a serious and often misunderstood condition, and too many people are left trying to cope without enough support, understanding, or answers.

That’s why I want to do something that pushes me while raising money for a charity that supports people with ME and their families, helps fund vital research, and works to raise awareness of what this illness is really like.

Any donation, no matter how small, would mean a lot. Thank you so much for your support.

Please help us to support people with ME and their families.ME (Myalgic Encephalopathy), or Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, blights the lives of over 400,000 people in the UK today. The smallest exertion can floor them; their joints and muscles ache unbearably; restful sleep eludes them; and ‘brain fog’ clouds their thinking. It changes lives drastically – disrupting study; making work impossible; and straining family relations to breaking point. Many sufferers cannot leave their homes. There is no known cure. Please help us to help them.
