Founded in 1953, the organization has grown significantly and now supports over 150,000 people living with MS in the UK. Headquartered in London, the MS Society operates a network of local groups. It provides a wide range of services and support to the MS community, including funding research to stop MS and improve treatments.

We focus on providing support, information, and funding for groundbreaking research to stop MS. Our activities include advocacy at all levels of government, community support through local groups and online forums, and funding scientific research to find better treatments and, ultimately, a cure for MS.
