Daily Press Summary resumed

22 October 2008

We are pleased to reinstate the Daily Press Summary service on our website, which will provide you with a summary of recent M.E.-related stories in the news.

In future we aim to operate the service Monday to Friday. Please note, however, that this is subject to staff availability and cannot be guaranteed.

The information contained within each press summary is provided for your personal information only. It does not necessarily reflect the views of Action for M.E.
