Asian MS
Empowering the South Asian community with knowledge, support, and compassion, to navigate the journey of multiple sclerosis together.
Asian MS is a national support group that offers tailored and culturally-sensitive services for Asian people with MS, their carers, friends and family.
It's aimed at people whose heritage originates from South Asia.
We aim to:
- raise awareness and dispel ignorance of MS in the Asian community
- bring people within the Asian MS community together through various channels and means
- raise money for services to help people affected by MS from the Asian community
- represent the views and support needs of Asians affected by MS within the MS Society and wider MS community
We offer:
- information and education
- webinars
- literature on MS in English
- literature on MS in Asian languages
- guidance and support for living a healthy lifestyle with MS, contextualised for the Asian community
Support and connection to the MS community:
- virtual chai and chat meet ups
- social media community
- telephone support
- newsletter
We're constantly planning and developing new services for our community, so get in touch by email or follow us on social media to keep up to date!
