A guide to Blue Sunday 2025

The Concert by Isaac Greer

Back by popular demand! Isaac Greer has orchestrated another exceptional concert for Blue Sunday participants to enjoy with their tea and cake. Isaac has tickets available on Eventbrite, with proceeds going to charities Smile For ME and ME Research UK.

Once again, there’s a printable leaflet for you to use at your own Tea Party For M.E. if you’d like to have some info on hand but aren’t able to make your own. Printable leaflet for 2025

Fundraising for ME/CFS causes

Every year I collate fundraising and donation links for charities across the world, in the hope it makes it easier for you to donate on Blue Sunday. You’ll find the links at the Blue Sunday Donations tab, or here. There is no obligation to donate, but those who can donate the price of tea and cake to an ME/CFS charity of their choice. I do my best to keep track of the running total so we know how much our efforts have raised each year.

I’m Anna

Welcome to M.E. myself and I, my tiny little corner of the internet where I share snippets of life in the slow lane. You’ll also find all things Blue Sunday here, the annual fundraising event I started in 2013 to raise awareness of M.E., include people living with the illness, and raise money for the M.E. charities who support us.
