The Stop MS Appeal

The Stop MS Appeal launched publicly in October with a splash. Our TV advert has been seen at least 2.5 million times. It’s been shared by thousands in the MS community, shown on a range of national TV channels, appeared in cinemas around the UK and gained huge exposure through our partnership with the Telegraph.

To raise £100 million to find treatments for everyone with MS, we’re coming together as Team Stop MS. There are all sorts of ways you can get involved - whether through sharing the appeal in your group newsletter; painting your social media 'Stop MS'; or fundraising your own way!

Right now, Stop MS Champions are out and about taking the appeal into our communities. They’ll be working with local groups and talking to the wider community to spread the word and help raise vital funds.

Marion Riley, one of the Champions and Group Coordinator of the Chorley & Leyland Group, talks about why she’s become a Champion:

“It’s a really important time for us. The awareness has been created online and it’s really important to raise awareness of the Stop MS Appeal in our communities too. It’s a massive campaign and it needs all the support it can get. I’m looking forward to working with other groups to promote the appeal.”
