Ashlin Lunardi, an Information & Community Coordinator with Aspire Canterbury, is coming to talk with us about how our identity shifts after the diagnosis of a debilitating chronic illness like ME/CFS or long COVID. The session will involve three parts:
+ a presentation exploring current research around identity, grief and acceptance concepts, chronic illness adjustment, and self‑management.
+ guided discussion
+ an overview of Aspire Canterbury’s services and supports.
This presentation part will be recorded and can be watched later on our YouTube channel.
