    Legal constitution
    • Charity registered in Scotland on 06/10/2005, number: SC036942
      • Notes: This SCIO was incorporated on 8 November 2011 as a result of a Change to SCIO application by ME Research Group For Education And Support (MERGE) SC036942, which was a Trust registered as a charity since 6 October 2005. The transfer of assets from the unincorporated body to the SCIO are shown as expenditure within the final accounts of the unincorporated body and income within the first period of the SCIO. This has therefore resulted in a high level of expenditure in the period ended 7 November 2011 and will result in a higher level of income for the first SCIO period to 31 October 2012.
