Two charities are launching a recession-busting campaign to raise £1,000,000 for biomedical research into the much-misunderstood illness ME/ Chronic Fatigue Syndrome.

ME Research UK and the ME Association have joined forces in the ‘Just Four Quid’ campaign which will use the internet to encourage donors to take advantage of weekly money-saving tips, and then give some of the money they save to the appeal.

The campaign will begin on 12 May 2009 – International ME Awareness Day – and last for a full year.

It will be run through a credit-crunching daily blog at http://www.justfourquid.com/
