Welcome
One of the MS Trust's goals is to help everyone understand the impact of multiple sclerosis, not just those directly affected by it. We work to achieve this every day, but MS Awareness Week (26 April - 2 May 2010) will give us a real opportunity to help people across the UK understand what it means to have MS and to focus the debate on how to improve MS services. It will also give you the opportunity to do something to raise awareness of MS in your local area and we can help you achieve that.
The truth is that MS is a very complex and unpredictable disease and it is not currently possible to predict how an individual's MS will develop. The type, duration, severity and impact of symptoms will vary from person to person. Some people will go for long periods with few or no symptoms whilst others will experience more frequent or persistent problems.
