LEGER ME GROUP LIBRARY BOOK LIST

 

We currently have a total of 28 books and pamphlets to lend out to members and I’ve set out a brief description of each of them.  The library also holds newsletters from a couple of other ME groups along with several editions of the InterAction magazine by Action For ME and the ME Research UK magazine, Breakthrough.  If you can find the energy to read, you never know what hints, tips and insights you may come across.  Please let us know if you come across a good book or pamphlet and we will see if we can source a copy.  As well as the books being available through the post, they will be at each of the meetings at The Redmond Centre. Happy Christmas & Best Wishes for the New Year.
