National councils
Our councils for England, Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales work on behalf of people affected by MS in each nation of the UK.
Cymraeg | English
Each national council usually has 12 members (15 in England). They form a key link within each nation between the Board and the MS community, as well as giving a national flavour to our UK-wide strategy.
Our council members contribute to the development of our strategy, develop annual plans, act as ambassadors and promote, develop and support volunteers.
They're ultimately accountable to our Board of Trustees.
Members, National Councils
We’re currently looking for people to join our National Councils. Our National Councils help us reach further into the MS community in each nation of the UK, acting as ambassadors for our cause and enabling people affected by MS to share what matters most to them. Councils help to deliver our strategy and national plans, and contribute to the Board’s understanding of nation specific priorities and issues.

About us
We’re the MS Society – a community of people living with MS, scientists, campaigners, volunteers and fundraisers.
We understand what life’s like with MS, and we support each other through the highs, lows and everything in between.
And we’re driving research into more – and better – treatments. For everyone.
Together, we are strong enough to stop MS.
