#MEAction Scotland appeared before the Scottish Parliament Petitions Committee on June 7th to give evidence on its petition to review treatment of ME patients in Scotland. 

Watch the hearing:

Not all petitioners are called before the Parliament’s Petitions Committee, so the fact that #MEAction Scotland has been summoned is very encouraging.

The petition has received 7,000 signatures, and calls on the Scottish Government to invest in biomedical research into ME, patient care and ME education for health professionals. 
And Emma Shorter’s testimony made the lunchtime news!
