Story
Hello, thank you for visiting our JustGiving page!
As a member of the London Silent Book Club (SBC), I am participating in a read-a-thon to raise money for Shift.ms: a charity founded by MSers for MSers.
I was introduced to this charity by one of our fantastic SBC members Bhagirathi, who is marking 10 years of being diagnosed with multiple sclerosis. Through Shift.ms, she found a supportive and kind community of MSers from all over the world who were always there to support, provide guidance and advice.
Here are some of the amazing things that Shift.ms do that your donations will help to support:
- Provide an online forum where people living with MS can meet, ask questions, provide support and share their experiences for other MSers
- Coordinate a Buddy programme that connects newly diagnosed MSers with other people who have been living with MS for a longer time to help them through the initial stages of the diagnosis (and to make MS friends!)
- Produce videos and blog content to raise awareness of what it is like to live with MS
