Story
MS Together is a support group and community organisation for younger people (aged 18-35) Since 2020, we've set ourselves 1 big fundraising challenge per year and our Million Steps for MS initiative has raised over £50,000 during this time, so we want to keep it going!This year, on 29 May 2022, we aim to collectively walk / run / wheel the equivalent of 3 Million Steps by midnight - that’s approximately 1500 miles or 57 marathons 😳 We will have a team made up of MS Together members and we will split the steps / miles between us.Please support our team in raising money for the MS Society. Since we last fundraised for them, here are just some of the advances they have made:- Zebrafish study showed cells that survive myelin damage are worse at producing myelin.- Researchers discovered changing a single gene can boost myelin repair in older mice.- The first person joined ChariotMS - a new clinical trial focusing on advanced MS.- The MS Society introduced Octopus - the world's first multi-arm, multi-stage trial for MS.- New research has identified which type of nerve cells are lost in MS.- The results from a phase 2a clinical trial showed bexarotene is capable of regenerating lost myelin.- New research suggests the diabetes drug pioglitazone could be another piece in the puzzle of stopping MS.And so much more! The MS Society is a wonderful charity that has supported many of us individually and as a group. We now want to give back in any way we can. We understand times are tough right now, but any donations - big or small - will go such a long way.
