This is a reply I've received from ACUK Facebook message, it gives the email address to contact their research team directly. I've emailed the research team for more clarification but whatever the outcome somebody, somewhere has made a serious error by posting misinformation?
"Thanks for your comment. To clarify, we do not fund the PACE trial. We are funding £735,536 to LIFT, which aims to improve access to treatments which alleviate fatigue in people with rheumatic conditions. LIFT had robust review before funding was given and recruitment is planned to start next summer. For any questions please contact
