MS Trust conference

Sunday 17 to Tuesday 19 March 2024, Leonardo Hotel and Conference Venue, Hinckley Island

The MS Trust conference is a fantastic event for MS health professionals. It provides an opportunity to learn about the latest treatments, therapies, developments in clinical practice and research from world-class key opinion leaders as well as share expertise and focus on improving care for everyone affected by Multiple Sclerosis.

We continuously revise our educational programme to meet current demands and in 2024 we will emphasise the significance of meaningful interactions for individuals with Multiple Sclerosis, ensuring every contact counts whilst incorporating sustainability as a guiding principle throughout the curriculum. 
 

Consultations in Practice: Every Contact Counts 

The provisional educational programme is available here.

To help fund your conference attendance, the MS Trust offers generous bursary schemes covering up to 80% of the cost of the three-day package. These bursaries are for MS nurses and allied health professionals who work regularly with people with MS and mean that you could pay as little as £128.40 (inclusive of VAT) for the three-day event.

Have you ever attended a seminar and wished they had covered certain aspects of the topic they hadn’t? Have you ever had specific questions you would have liked addressed? 

Well for conference 2024, we are giving you the opportunity to shape the content of the seminars you choose to attend! 

If you are an ‘early bird’ and sign up before Thursday 30 November, you will receive an invitation to submit your content suggestions and questions to the speakers ahead of time.

Full instructions will be sent in your booking confirmation email. 

The MS Trust conference poster exhibition provides an opportunity to showcase examples of excellence in research, evidence and practice in MS care. 

Posters will be displayed throughout the conference and there is time in the programme for poster authors to respond to delegate questions. 

The core theme of conference 2024 focuses on the significance of meaningful interactions for individuals with Multiple Sclerosis, ensuring every contact counts. Alongside this, we are also incorporating sustainability as a guiding principle throughout the curriculum. Submitted posters are encouraged to be aligned with these themes.
