Multiple Sclerosis is the most common disabling neurological disease amongst young people in Ireland with over 10,000 people living with MS. For people living with MS there is still no known cure, but MS Ireland has already made a positive impact on their lives by providing practical support through services like our physiotherapy classes, one-to-one community support and respite care. With your support, we can really make a difference!
