Our free online Breaking Isolation workshops are an exciting opportunity to meet other children and young people who have ME, to get to know each other and to take part in fun games and creative activities.
We hope you will also feel more confident talking about your experience of ME/CFS in a safe and understanding environment.
All our Breaking Isolation workshops have plenty of time for free chat for you to connect with others and make friends, along with a section focused on creativity or self-advocacy.
Registration for each workshop opens a month before, on a first come, first served basis. See below for the schedule and the links to register your free place.
We offer workshops for two age groups, 8-13 years and 14-18 years, alternating each time. You don't need to be a member of our Young People's Community to take part - but if you'd like to join we'd love to welcome you!
Registering on Eventbrite gives you all the details you need. If you are under 16, we will need your parent/guardian permission for you to attend (there's a section for them to complete on the sign-up form about this).
Workshops last for 1.5 hours from 4pm to 5.30pm, with a 10-minute break half way through.
All workshops are facilitated by a staff member along with one of our brilliant young volunteers. Interested in potentially volunteering? Find out more here.
These workshops are more suitable for young people who are moderately or mildly affected.
Please get in touch if you have any questions, including if you are more severely affected and would like to discuss how we may be able to meet your access requirements.
This building resilience and finding hope workshop for 8-13 year olds takes place on Tuesday 6 May. It includes:
We will send participants a journal/notebook the week before the workshop. Booking will be open from Monday 1 to Wednesday 30 April on a first come, first served basis.
