MS-UK is a national charity formed in 1993. We are here for people affected by multiple sclerosis – that’s around *150,000 people in the UK or one in every 500, with about 135 people diagnosed every week on average. The overall number of people living with multiple sclerosis worldwide is estimated to be 2.3 million. MS-UK is here for anyone affected by multiple sclerosis, to empower them to live healthier and happier lives by improving the understanding of MS and providing support where it is needed most.
