AYME’s Chief Executive Officer, Mary-Jane Willows, says there are some great examples of good schools supporting pupils with ME/CFS, but there are also some heartbreaking stories of Local Education Authorities acting unreasonably, inflexibly and, in some cases, illegally, by not providing the support they are obliged to in law.

For further information or, to request interviews with young people with ME/CFS contact the press officer:
Katie James, Tel: 01908 379737 mobile: 07816 989 067 or katie@ayme.org.uk.
