MS can affect everyone differently, but some groups may have similar experiences and needs. In this section you'll find information on the different services that can help you live with MS.

If you're looking for other information and publications please see About MS?, where you'll find all the most frequently asked questions.

Getting Support

Our Helpline and National Support Groups can provide help and point you in the right direction for information. There are currently National Support Groups for the Asian community (Asian MS), for those in the armed forces (Mutual Support) and for gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgengered people (GLAMS).

Getting support as someone who is a carer is equally important, our Carers Section can help.  

Information services

As well as our free publications, you can also learn about MS through some of the events and activities we organise. 

Living With MS Information Days provide information and the opportunity to share experiences.

Our self-management short courses aim to help you manage long-term conditions such as MS. 

Video and audio information from experts provide access to information on specific topics.

We also have information on other MS Books and Journals available, along with book reviews written by those affected by MS.  

Financial help

Costs can be one of the side effects of MS that you may not have thought about straight away. Whether it's money from our National Grant Fund, Young Carers fund or another fund we can provide help and advice.  

Respite care and short breaks

For those who experience more severe disability, respite homes can provide a much needed break for carers, as well as rehabilitation and recuperation for the person affected by MS.
