Branches and support
MS Society Scotland’s branches bring people affected by MS together.
We have thirty four branches throughout Scotland offering support and services to people affected by MS.
Every branch is different, but services they offer include:
- emotional and practical support
- financial help
- information events
- social events
- MS support groups
They also raise millions of pounds every year to help people affected by MS.
