MEISS (Otago & Southland) Inc
Myalgic Encephalomyelitis Information Support Services
(Otago and Southland) Inc
Mission Statement
Our mission is to improve the quality of life for people with Myalgic Encephalomyelitis (M.E.) by providing them with information and support, and by educating health professionals and the wider community.
Our logo is the New Zealand Albatross. This is illustrative as these birds need a strong wind to lift them up so that they can fly. Rather like the help sufferers need from others in order to be able to take off and fly again for themselves.
