World MS Day is officially marked on 30 May every year. It is a day that brings the global MS community together to celebrate solidarity and hope for the future.
World MS Day brings the global MS community together on 30 May to share stories, raise awareness and campaign with everyone affected by multiple sclerosis.
The 2024 World MS Day theme is 'My MS Diagnosis’, focussing on navigating the early stages after diagnosis. In particular, this year MS Plus will focus on the importance of building informed, caring communities and systems that support people diagnosed with MS.
'My MS Diagnosis: It Takes a Village' is about recognising and celebrating the diverse people, systems and services that support people with MS.
Finding and nurturing a 'village' — whatever that may look like — after diagnosis and beyond, creates a vital network to help people with MS to live their best lives.
We’re hosting a range of events throughout May to mark World MS Day 2024, to help our MS community to celebrate their own village, including your partners at MS Plus.
More information is also available on the official World MS Day website.
