Why should your team attend this session?
MS is the most common disabling neurological condition in working-aged adults, affecting over 150,000 people in the UK. In addition to physical challenges like mobility, balance, and strength, many people with MS experience invisible symptoms such as fatigue, bladder or bowel issues, and cognitive difficulties. These can impact daily living, employment, and overall wellbeing.
Professionals play a crucial role in supporting those with MS. MS-UK is here to help increase your team’s understanding of the condition and the support available to the MS community.
What will you learn?
This session will be delivered by an MS-UK team member, alongside a volunteer with lived experience of MS.
What is MS?
Myths and preconceptions
Symptoms that may impact on wellbeing
A lived experience of MS
Symptom management tips
The kind of support that people with MS may need on their MS journey
Who should attend

Professionals that work for a charity or voluntary organisation supporting people with a disability
Support workers or home care workers
Professionals that work in health or social care
Teams that support people living with MS
If you’re a care provider, social prescriber, or work in employment support (including the DWP), they recommend joining one of their specialised MS Awareness sessions tailored specifically for your role. Click the links above to find the session that’s right for you!
