World MS Day 2018 toolkit and events map launched

Tools for this year’s World MS Day campaign, #bringinguscloser, are now available for everyone to download from the World MS Day website and you can add your events to the World MS Day events map.

World MS Day 2018 will take place on 30 May 2018. The campaign is called #bringinguscloser and the theme is research.

The  campaign is all about bringing people affected by MS closer to those involved in MS research, including scientists, students, nurses, fundraisers, volunteers and more. It’s a chance to come together to celebrate what we’ve achieved in MS research so far as a global MS community and share our hopes for the future.

Each year, MSIF provides a range of tools for individuals and organisations to use and adapt for their World MS Day activities. These tools are designed to help everyone to get involved in World MS Day, whether online (e.g. on social media) or offline (e.g. by organising an event). On the World MS Day website, you can find a wide range of materials such as social media shareables, posters, research profile templates and much more.

If you’re planning an event for World MS Day, add your event to the World MS Day events map – it’s a fantastic way to raise global awareness and encourage people near you to attend your event!

More materials for the #bringinguscloser campaign will be available over the coming months. Visit the World MS Day website for more information about how to get involved.
