We expect to have at least four events in June 2026, a face to face social, a Mindfulness session with Michael, our 2nd Friday of the month Zoom and a Zoom social. We have a few bonus events that we have been planning and exploring and whilst July-September is more likely there might be an extra event or two appear soon.
As usual everyone is welcome to our sessions. They are targeted at people with ME/CFS, Long Covid and related conditions and people who care for people with these conditions too ( whether accompanying someone with these conditions or not). We do encourage people who attend more than one event in a year to join/renew their membership as this both helps enable us to come together more as a community and also paid memberships help fund our work.
Mindfulness Zoom with Michael – Wednesday 3rd June 11am
This will be with our usual Zoom link (see bottom of this post). Back by popular request
2nd Friday of the Month Zoom – Mollie Bridger 11am June 12th
We are delighted to have a session run by Mille. Here is a little about her “Millie Bridger is a UK-based speaker, writer, actress, model and health advocate who is redefining how disability and chronic illness are seen in society. Living with multiple complex conditions, including Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome, gastroparesis and PoTS, she shares her story with honesty and energy, challenging stigma and opening conversations that inspire inclusion. Feeding tubes and mobility aids are part of her everyday life, and she places them at the centre of her advocacy to show that visibility drives change. “

You do not need to be a current member of Stockport ME Group to attend but we do ask if you attend multiple sessions of ours in a year you consider joining for that year.
