The Multiple Sclerosis Resource Centre (national charity No 1033731) is dedicated to supporting anyone affected by MS.
It is thought that between 85 and 100 thousand people in the UK - about 1 in 600 - have been diagnosed. MS affects more women than men with symptoms usually becoming apparent in young adults even though a firm diagnosis might not be made for many years. It is rare for children to be diagnosed.
For more information call 01206505444.
The charity produces a bi-monthly magazine "New Pathways" (a 44 page full colour mag)- which is written by people with MS themselves or by people affected by MS (family, friends, carers etc.). "New Pathways" is available by subscription of only 10 pounds a year.
