We’re the MS Society. We fund world-leading MS research, share the latest information and campaign for the rights of people affected by MS. Together we are a community and together we can stop MS. There are over 150,000 people with MS in the UK, and more than 7,000 newly diagnosed cases each year. Life with MS can be tough. It’s unpredictable, and different for everyone. It’s often painful, exhausting and can cause problems with how we walk, move, see, think and feel.

TB Alert
Tuberculosis (TB) is the greatest infectious cause of death worldwide. Until the 1960s it was a major killer in Britain. Many older people will remember the isolation sanatoria and fear. Each year in Britain, there are still around 5,000 people diagnosed with TB. Even worse, the World Health Organisation (WHO) reports that one and a half million people worldwide still die from TB annually, despite improvements in diagnostic tools and drugs. A figure that has increased as health resources were diverted away from TB to address the Covid pandemic.
