MS Awareness Week 2025


Group of diverse people. Text reads: MS Awareness Week 2025, 28 April to 04 May

MS Awareness Week 2025 runs from 28 April - 04 May. We're once again working with other MS charities to encourage everyone to have MS conversations. 

We know that people in the MS community often find conversations about multiple sclerosis difficult. This might include talking to friends, family, colleagues or health professionals. Well, we're here to say, you're not alone. This MS Awareness Week, we're working with the MS Society, MS Together, MS-UK, Neuro Therapy Network, Overcoming MS, Shift.ms and Talks with M.S. to shine a light on conversations and why they're important.

Together, we want to get people talking and sharing. Let's hear about those really tricky conversations, those chats that you wish you'd had earlier and the ones that supported you. It's good to talk ...

Want to get involved? We'd love to hear from you! Use #MSConversations on social media to start the conversation.

Resources

Talking about your MS can feel daunting. In the run up to having challenging conversations, you might feel worried or fearful. You might ask, 'Will the other person understand?' or, "Is it even worth telling them what's really going on?"

We know how common these feelings are, and that's why we're here with helpful resources to support discussions about life with multiple sclerosis. Explore our range of resources to help manage conversations with friends, family, co-workers and health professionals. Plus, find out where you can talk to the MS community.

Head to our A-Z of MS to find support for any aspect of life with MS.
