A Virtual Runner company, virtualrunneruk.com, which sends out medals to runners on their request, will support FMA UK in February – all you need to do to be a part of it is to sign up before 24 February for a medal – or if you can’t run yourself, spread the word to those who run!
Here is more information from the Virtual Runner: ‘’We are challenging you to run, walk and/or cycle as many km as you can between 15th February and 21st February. You can break this challenge down into as many events as you like to earn your medal!
Can we together reach the stars? Submissions are required online by 12 noon on 24th February to claim your medal. The race charity is FMA UK and they will receive a minimum of 20% of every entry fee.’’

If your Health Care Professional needs some education in fibromyalgia you can request that an FMA UK Health Professionals Pack is sent out to them. All we need is the name of the Health CareProfessional and the address of their practice. We will then send a pack to their surgery addressed from us to them.
You can request a medical pack using this form.
You can find a Support Group near you by contacting the Regional Coordinator for your area. If there does not happen to be a support group near you then maybe you can join with some other members and set one up. Support groups provide a social benefit as well as the opportunity to share tips on coping with fibro. They come in all shapes and sizes and we are often told how they have helped people.
