Action MS supports people living with multiple sclerosis, their families and carers in Northern Ireland. Lurgan Model Primary School really enjoyed their morning’s walk and we are very grateful for their generous support.
“The Walks for MS first started over 30 years ago and have directly helped Action MS develop its support from a listening ear service to include support for children and families living with multiple sclerosis, support for young people, free legal advice and Digital Inclusion.”
Northern Ireland has the second highest rate of multiple sclerosis in the world, second only to Scotland. Action MS works all across Northern Ireland to support people living with multiple sclerosis, their families and carers.
