World MS Day takes place next Wednesday (May 30 ) and the people of Galway are urged to get involved in local and national activities.
On Wednesday MS Ireland will hold a tea and coffee morning in Supermac’s in Galway at 11am. Supermac’s will donate a percentage of every cup of coffee sold on the day which will be used to fund individual and family support, counselling, and physiotherapy and exercise programmes throughout the Western region.
Multiple Sclerosis Ireland is also asking Galwegians to lobby local TDs for better access to treatments for people with MS, or organise a McVitie’s Digestives Tea Party in their home, community or workplace to raise funds for local services to people with MS.
Anyone interested can text World, followed by their first name, to 51565 for a fundraising pack. For further information call the regional office 091-768630.
