Britain's What's On Event Guide
Discover ME Campaign Where Hidden Lives Are Virtually Uncovered
Join us for the Discover ME Campaign, a targeted initiative designed to enhance awareness of Myalgic Encephalomyelitis (M.E.) across Northern Ireland. This campaign seeks to challenge perceptions and enlighten attendees on the realities of living with M.E., promising an engaging and informative experience that surpasses traditional awareness efforts.
The campaign features the innovative Discover ME animated video, presented in a Virtual Reality format to deepen engagement and understanding. During the event, participants will experience a six-minute VR presentation that merges patient stories with VR technology, offering insights into the daily challenges faced by individuals with M.E.
This VR experience is crafted to educate and inform, highlighting aspects of M.E. that are often unseen. It is especially beneficial for healthcare providers, aiming to foster greater understanding and empathy through a direct, immersive experience.
Participants at each event will have the option to watch the Discover ME film using immersive Virtual Reality (VR) headsets, or on a computer as a standard video. This dual-viewing option ensures that all attendees can experience the film in a format that suits their comfort and accessibility needs.
We invite people to come along and join us in broadening your knowledge about M.E., contributing to better support and recognition of those affected by this condition.
