Situation
Multiple sclerosis is a chronic condition for which there is no cure. Symptoms can include visual disturbances, pain, fatigue, mobility problems and difficulties with thinking. People with MS are also more likely to experience poor mental health. With over 150,000 people living with MS in the UK and 7,500 more diagnosed each year, the need for reliable information and professional emotional support has never been greater.
Solution
Our helpline, webinars and booklets empower people affected by MS to take a holistic approach to managing their condition and live happier, healthier lives. We provide information about all subjects related to MS including lifestyle changes, complementary therapies, symptom management, welfare rights and aids and adaptations. We are also a listening ear, enabling people to better cope with their emotions and experiences.
