What is My MS Walk?

My MS Walk gives you the opportunity to keep active, be part of a special virtual community and raise vital funds to help stop MS. Set your date, set your distance and make it your own challenge. 

Examples of what you can do: 

  • laps of your local park 
  • 1 - 100km – or set your own distance goal! 
  • 5km a day for a month 
  • a hike with friends 

Go solo or get friends, family, or work colleagues involved in your challenge. Log your progress on a fitness tracker and see how far you can go. 

Once you have signed up, we’ll automatically create a JustGiving page for you and send you one of our branded t-shirts. You can sign up and complete your walk any time before 31 December 2024. 

How your money helps

£50

is enough to operate a high powered microscope for an hour to study cells and tissue affected by MS at the necessary resolution.

£100

is enough to process four blood samples and extract information about genes and the immune system that is vital when testing out new treatments.

£250

is enough to run an MRI scanner for an hour and provide the detailed images of the brain crucial for understanding MS progression. We are currently funding projects that use MRI scanners to carry out trials and understand MS in more detail.

Stop MS Appeal

By 2025, we want to be in the final stages of testing treatments for everyone with MS. Treatments that slow or stop disability progression. We believe £100 million could take us to a future where no one has to worry about MS getting worse. That’s where you come in!
