Hi Steve
Thanks for the note. The plan is to show them at an exhibition at the Oxo Tower Gallery in London in September, and hopefully a book too. We're also looking at other venues around the UK.

I know, most articles use this type of unrepresentative stock photos and only CFS in the title. I guess we have to pick our battles wisely. Especially if we are pwME.
@jeremy-jeffs.bsky.social has been taking really great photos of people with ME in the UK.

Our response to the DHSC’s ME/CFS Delivery Plan - a plan without money, mandates or deadlines is not a plan - it is a wish‑list -@rthonwesstreeting.bsky.social @ashleydaltonmp.bsky.social

#MECFS is a health scandal.
#millionsmissing from work, education & society but no agreement on how many are affected.
Ignored by healthcare, excluded from research, invisible in data.
This isn’t just neglect. It’s erasure.

A black and white photo of Niko, a man with a dark beard, lying in bed. In the foreground a pillow is shown. Middle ground is Niko with his head on a pillow, looking at the camera, having his hand on his cheast. Background shows white cabinet doors and two basketball jerseys hanging on them.

I’ve not posted here for a while now. I’ve not felt good this summer, and I still don’t. Opportunities for self-portraits or meaningful photos have been mostly absent.

Although I did took this one earlier, and wrote some words.

Highlights from Dr Charles Shepherd’s (@MEAssociation) interview with BBC Scotland on the new #MECFS delivery plan β€” clip covers what ME is, key symptoms, how many are affected, & why the figure is likely much higher, as many with #LongCovid meet the criteria/diagnosed with ME.

β€˜Challenging summer’ for children in struggling families As the long school holiday gets underway, a survey suggests low-income families face a particularly challenging summer with parents feeling more worried this year than last about being able to afford ...

NEW - we asked parents in lower-income families about the summer holidays.

44% said they were likely to need a foodbank.

48% are more worried about being able to afford things for their children this summer holiday, compared to last year.

This looks interesting - I'd certainly be applying if only I was in Canada. If you are, give it a go.

The response of @thereforme.bsky.social is spot on. Over the past 3 years I've photographed dozens of #pwME who are trapped in bedrooms desperate for appropriate treatment.

This is shaping up to be a great and inspiring event, in the gallery space where the Outsiders exhibition is on display. Highly recommended and will support a charity which is doing outstanding work with people experiencing homelessness.
