MS Trust conference

Sunday 31 January to Tuesday 2 February

In 2027, we are celebrating 30 years of MS Trust conference! Thirty years in MS care has been really significant; it has seen the change from reactive to proactive care, no teams to the MS multidisciplinary team, 30 years of specialist education and supporting people to self manage their MS.

Our 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.

Registrations for conference 2027 are now open!

Conference 2026 was a successful event including the most up‑to‑date, evidence‑driven insights in MS care. Across three inspiring days, leading experts, new research, and practical, multidisciplinary learning came together to equip every MS professional with the knowledge, confidence and tools to deliver outstanding, person‑centred care. This is where the latest science meets real‑world practice — and where the MS community moves forward, together.

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 £134.40 (inclusive of VAT) for the three-day event. 

If you are eligible for a bursary, you will be sent an email outlining details and the funding code that you need to use to register online.

• There are a limited number of bursaries available so early application is advised
• Bursaries will be allocated on a first come first served basis
• Bursaries are only available if you are booking to attend for the full three days
• Payment should be made by credit or debit card at the time of booking
• If you cancel your place after you have registered a cancellation charge may apply

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

The core theme of conference 2027 focuses on delivering person-centred care at every stage of an MS journey.
