MS Peer Support
Living with multiple sclerosis or caring for someone with the condition can be challenging – especially the people newly diagnosed, who can feel particularly vulnerable. At MS, one way we’ve addressed this is through our Peer Support program, whereby people living with multiple sclerosis or their family members or carers can support one another either face to face, over the phone or through Facebook.
We train volunteers with lived experience to become Peer Support volunteers.
Giving and receiving practical and emotional support can help you understand a recent diagnosis, manage your symptoms and live well with multiple sclerosis.
Our MS Peer Support program is a great way for people living with multiple sclerosis, carers, family and friends to connect with and support each other. It’s also a great way to make new friends!
We offer MS Peer Support through a variety of channels, and it’s completely free to participate.
