With a General Election due to take place on Thursday 12 December, it’s a chance for us to raise our voices about the changes we want to see for people affected by MS.

However, the Lobbying Act, introduced in 2014, set legal restrictions around what charities can and can’t do during an election period. This is to ensure that no individual or organisation can have influence over an election. As the MS Society, our staff, and you, our wonderful volunteers, we have to be really careful to not appear to be influencing the way anyone may vote.

Find out what's changed in the latest Group Handbook update.

Don't worry if you didn’t catch our Stop MS ad on Channel 4 last week - there are lots more chances to see it!
