Ask your MS to support a debate in the Senedd
Welsh Senedd Debate on Severe and Very Severe ME
Adam Price, Member of the Welsh Senedd (MS), has sponsored a motion for debate in the Senedd about provision for Severe and Very Severe ME. The motion has been tabled for consideration by the Business Committee which allocates debate slots. Now we need to get as many MSs as we can to support the motion, to give it the best chance of being selected.
Severe ME Difrifol Cymru is an informal group of people with Severe / Very Severe ME and their carers who have got together to support Adam’s motion for debate.
They have managed to book a place in ‘Y Farchnad’ (‘The Marketplace’) on Tuesday July 15th, which is an opportunity once a month for groups to have a stall and display in the Senedd, and to talk to MSs face to face about their cause.
They’ve been required by the Senedd to submit a logo – so they’ve had to come up with one! – and are busy putting together a banner and other display materials.
How can you help?
- Please email / write to / phone your local and regional MSs to ask them to drop by the Severe ME Difrifol Cymru stall next Tuesday 11am-2pm in Y Farchnad.
- Tell them about the Motion ( SeneddMotion8884) and why it’s important to you that they put their support behind it.
- You can find out who your MSs are and their contact details at this link
Severe ME Difrifol Cymru is coordinated by Severe ME champion Rob Messenger and supported by WAMES.
I think this is such a positive thing to do.
Its certainly a way to raise awareness on the topic.
Diolch i bawb . / Thank you to all.
