Charities: 

The Multiple Sclerosis Society of Ireland is the only national organisation working solely on behalf of people living with Multiple Sclerosis and thousands more who share their lives. MS Ireland provides a wide range of services and support that are often a lifeline for some 8,000+ people living with Multiple Sclerosis. Such services include the MS Information Line, a network of professional community workers and case workers throughout Ireland and the MS Care Centre. There is also an extensive branch network throughout Ireland, our 41 branches are run entirely by volunteers. The work of MS Ireland in providing this support for people living with Multiple Sclerosis is only made possible by the valuable assistance provided by a wide range of volunteers and supporters.
