Fibromyalgia Ireland
Hi everyone, as you are aware, there is not enough awareness surrounding Fibromyalgia in Ireland and we plan to change that. It won't be easy, it'll probably be a long road, a lot of hard work and sleepless nights but it will be worth it.
All monies raised will go directly to raising awareness, providing more education, advocacy, improving community welfare services and helping those who feel isolated within their community.
Our Goals
- Raise Awareness about Fibromyalgia
- Provide Better Education and Information
- Provide Better Support
- Hold Regular Support Group Meetings
- Improve Community Welfare
- Help Tackle Isolation within Communities
Aim
Our aim is to raise enough money to be able to carry out the above goals, to help our community of Fibro Warriors.
