If your MS Society group handles money and delivers services and activities, you must be available to all people affected by MS in the area.
See Group Handbook B1: Availability, contact and communication
Being available to all means:
- People affected by MS in the area know about your group
- Your services and activities are accessible to all
Promoting your group

Services and activities on the Portal
The ‘services and activities’ tab on the Portal is our record of all services, activities and events delivered by MS Society groups throughout the UK.
Services and activities listed on the Portal are automatically published on our website. Maintaining this information on the Portal enables you to publicise your activities and keep us informed about what your group offers – a requirement for all our groups.
Whenever a person contacts the MS Helpline or our Supporter Care Team, the information we provide will be what is held on the Portal.

Being accessible to all
All venues used by your group to deliver services and activities must be physically accessible.
- Use our Access Audit to confirm your venues meet our accessibility standards
Accessibility can also mean that a service or activity is available by phone as well as face to face, or that transport is available, if required.
