Every week across the UK, 135 people are diagnosed with MS. Just this month prevalence statistics were increased by 20,000 to accurately represent that over 150,000 people are living with MS in the UK today. Every single one of these people were sat down with a health professional and given the news of an MS diagnosis. That is the beginning of a new journey, a journey that can so often be isolating and confusing. At the MS Trust we want to make sure trusted information is in the hands of those individuals right from the start so that they feel empowered to take control when they are ready.
Understanding what MS is and then appreciating what MS means for you is the beginning. For every question you have along your journey we strive to offer an answer. We are listening to people with MS, their families and the people within MS healthcare and research. We are gathering and analysing all the information to bring that knowledge to you so that you can truly understand the best way forward with your MS.
