Finally, after three years, Leeds #MillionsMissing in-person event is coming back! Help us make this year even bigger that the last.
#MillionsMissing is a global campaign organised by #MEAction UK for better health equality for people with ME.
Earlier this year we kicked off Leeds 2022 #MillionsMissing campaign with a virtual event on 12th May. The online event allowed the opportunity for local Yorkshire based ME suppport groups to connect with people with ME across Yorkshire. The event was smaller with the promise of a bigger in-person event later in the year.
On Saturday 17th September (2022) we will be taking to the streets Leeds City Centre once again. Our aim this year is to reconnect with local groups and build our network of support whilst raising awareness of the debilitating disease.
As preparations are well underway we’d like to appeal to those who wish to support the event. As many of you know Leeds #MillionsMissing and ME & Me is solely run by myself (Charlie Wainwright) and any support you’re able to provide to help the smooth running of the day is hugely appreciated.
