Thank you, but I was looking for other organisations that you can contact that have been mentioned on here ... Like CAB.

My friend isn't a member of this forum.

They do not need to be a member of the forum - if they have fibro they can contact FMA UK.

Other places would be Cab, local authority welfare rights officer. You may need to Google for other local disability charities who can help. Also, social prescriber/link worker at gp surgery may know of local organisation's who can help
