ME/CFS Australia would like to encourage people with ME/CFS to take advantage of the Companion Card Scheme in their state or territory.

The Companion Card scheme enables eligible Australians with disabilities to attend sporting and cultural events without incurring the cost of an extra ticket for their carer.
