For 25 years East Anglian groups have collectively worked systematically and relentlessly to hold matters to account.
Recommend any area groups refer and use Local Authority Health Scrutiny and Overview democratic services...
ME Local Network are becoming an effective voice for Groups and refer to the lived experience.
They have good, experienced, local charity support groups leads, active with the delivery plan and Forward ME.
I am an old sceptic,.... but have been hugely encouraged by the teams recent efforts...

RF has not been operating in good faith.
He has been like a magpie!
Dipping in and dipping out.
Wheeler dealing and trade our wares.
If 'our wares' were really good, then maybe no harms would be done.
But, we lost control of our wares in May 2024 * by ICB excluding 2 of us) and...
Comment 1.
Well explained.
I went to the ICB Board meeting with concerns over MEA ELeros and Tyson's trade proposals and appeals to make good use of their Apps.
This was after the July 2025 Web Seminar from which I was excluded attendance and denied a recording by MEA. They have blanked my...
I have the film 'Denial', staring Timothy Spall.... about an author being sued for libel. It's a real lesson on the libel law, both here and in America.

SNEE Board meetings are more generally around 3 hours sometimes 4....hours.
It's a very long time to wait to ask unannounced questions in public (on agenda items). ....
But worth the wait, to drop a 3 4 minute bomb or 2,.... or even the odd compliment!
Do it nearly every meeting!

Everyone needs to pile on on MEA Facebook page which invites comments, counter Kent Sussex/ BACME MEA Eleros Tyson steer.......
Colin C is doing a resounding PR campaign....
I knew that MEA had 'facilitated' this....
The clues are in the Tender Documentation....
I'm glad our years of campaigning and intensive effort from 2022 to 2024 is, at least being used ...and appreciated, even though MEA are claiming much of the credit!
