July 19, 2022

We are holding an Employment and Self-Advocacy workshop for adults with M.E. in Scotland on Thursday 28th July, 2pm.

Join Action for M.E.’s trained and knowledgeable staff and volunteers to hear about how to advocate on your own behalf on issues related to employment.

  • When? 2pm-3.30pm on Thursday 28 July 2022.
  • Where? Online via Zoom. To register your place, email: scotland@actionforME.org.uk
  • What will it involve? The webinar will offer an overview of common areas of employment that people with M.E. might find difficult such as looking for employment, adjustments at work and when work isn’t working. We will offer some practical tools and signposting to support you to start advocating on your own behalf around employment.

We will hold the webinar for an hour then there will be half an hour for general questions. We will have a break if people need it. We can’t address specific cases online but can signpost to our services and other organisations that may be able to help. You will be able to see staff and facilitators but participant’s cameras are generally off during a webinar. We will record the webinar in case people can’t attend on the day.
