Other ways to support

Every day we speak to vulnerable, isolated people who have recently been diagnosed with myasthenia and don’t know where to turn. Through your donations, they are helped to navigate their individual myasthenia journey, knowing that myaware is with them every step of the way.

Recycling is extremely important for our environment, but it can also help raise funds for myaware! You can also sell items you no longer use to raise funds for the charity. See the options below for more details on how you can help the environment and people living with myasthenia at the same time.

Raising funds for myaware has never been easier while shopping online. Easyfundraising.org.uk have partnered with over 7000+ brands, and will donate a percentage of your purchase to myaware at no extra cost to you. Whether you're an individual or a company, please do sign up today, as it will make a huge difference to people living with myasthenia. We could raise £100s of extra funding every year just from donations generated by ordinary, everyday online shopping. Take a look below for more information.

Thank you for fighting myasthenia together with us.
