New Family Support Webinar Series

12 August 2026

We are piloting a new series of Family Support Webinars, designed to support parents and carers of children and young people with ME/CFS. 

The first webinar has now been rescheduled for: 

    • Date: Wednesday 26th August, 2026 
    • Time: 4pm-5:30pm 
    • Location: online via Zoom 

      This webinar will be delivered by Keely, our Family Services Coordinator, and Juliet, our Information and Support Officer. 

      The webinar will focus on working with your child’s school and will cover topics including: 

      • What meetings to ask for, how to prepare for them and who to ask to be present 
      • Asking for IHCPs and exploring adaptations and provisions 
      • Important milestones to be aware of, such as transitioning to secondary school, mock and GCSE exams 

      There will also be a Q&A session where you can ask Keely and Juliet questions related to these topics. 

      You can register for the webinar here. 

      Capacity for this webinar is capped at 20 places. If there are no places left available, you can still register via the same link to be sent our recording of the webinar by email. 

      Please note, this is our pilot webinar of the series, and we will be sending out feedback forms afterwards to shape future webinars.
