About this job
Over 130,000 people in the UK have multiple sclerosis (MS). It’s unpredictable and different for everyone. It’s often painful and exhausting, and can cause problems with how one walks, moves, sees, thinks and feels. It can make it hard for people to work, and do the things they enjoy. But it doesn’t have to be this way. This charity is a community of people living with MS, scientists, campaigners, volunteers and fundraisers. They understand what life’s like with MS, and they support each other through the highs, lows and everything in between. And they are driving research into more – and better – treatments for everyone.
Together, to be strong enough to stop MS.
