MS Awareness Week

Community events

Monday 22nd April, 2024

About this event

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a neurological condition - that means it affects your nerves. You get it when your immune system isn’t working properly.

Your immune system normally protects you by fighting off infection, but in MS it attacks your nerves by mistake. Your nerves control lots of different parts of your body. That’s why you can get MS symptoms in many parts of your body. It’s also why everyone’s MS is different.

MS Awareness week aims to raise awareness about the condition and help people get the support and help they need.
