World MS Day 2014

[MSUK]

Today is World MS Day!

The Multiple Sclerosis International Federation’s theme this year is ‘Access’ and in keeping with this theme we have chosen today to launch our Choices leaflets http://www.ms-uk.org/publications in an audio format on our website. The Choices leaflets provide essential information about the many and varied facets of multiple sclerosis, and by now making them available as audio files they can help those who experience visual disturbances as well as those for whom holding a leaflet or turning a page can be difficult.

We have made our website more accessible by installing ‘BrowseAloud’ on our website too.

We are also marking World MS Day with the release of our new film, Jennie’s Story. The film shows how MS has affected a young family and how by accessing our services; we have helped them to cope with living with this life changing condition.

Click the link below to watch our film and forward it to your friends, family and colleagues so they too can learn about how MS can affect people and how we can provide the support so often needed.
We welcome your feedback http://www.ms-uk.org/contact on all our new features.
