For Lesley Timmins from Co. Wicklow, World MS Day is an opportunity to raise awareness not only of multiple sclerosis itself, but also of the everyday realities faced by people living with the condition, especially those using mobility aids.

For Niamh Redmond from Wexford, World MS Day is an important opportunity to share real experiences, raise awareness and challenge misconceptions about multiple sclerosis.

For Deirdre Murphy from Cork, World MS Day is important because it is a chance to make sure people living with MS are seen, supported and understood.

Each year on 30 May, people around the world come together to mark World MS Day, a global awareness day dedicated to highlighting the realities of living with multiple sclerosis (MS).

In Ireland, MS Ireland continues to play a leading role in raising awareness by amplifying the voices and lived experiences of people across the MS community.

Join us in Bushy Park, Dublin on Saturday, 30 May 2026 for a community walk/run bringing people together in support of people living with MS across Ireland.

To mark World MS Day this year, MS Irelands Western Regional Office are delighted to have the MS Ireland Support and Education Nurse Sorcha Barlow down to the region for an Information Session on MS Symptoms and Support.
