Multiple sclerosis is a chronic condition of the central nervous system in which the immune system attacks the protective covering of nerve fibres. This can lead to a wide range of symptoms, such as fatigue, muscle weakness, balance problems, or cognitive difficulties.

In MS, we focus on maintaining or improving independence. We support clients in continuing to perform the activities that matter to them, despite their limitations. This may include advice on assistive devices and adaptations, and practising how to adjust everyday activities.
We also look at energy conservation strategies and adapting the living environment, taking future progression into account.
