Speaking about this year’s event Ava Battles, Chief Executive of MS Ireland said, “We see this as a great opportunity for young people living with MS in Ireland to come together and to discuss topics of importance to their day to day lives. While MS can vary greatly from person to person and can often be invisible to those around them MS Explored can support them in living well with the condition.”
