The Multiple Sclerosis Resource Centre (MSRC) is a proactive and innovative charity passionately committed to supporting anyone affected by Multiple Sclerosis through access to unbiased information and advice. Our approach is to encourage individuals to make choices that are appropriate to their daily lives, empowering them to maximise their potential.

Some of the services MSRC provides include:

MSRC strongly believes that “Life is for Living” and by providing unbiased information and advice, people affected by MS can make choices that are relevant to their particular needs.

Our history

Over 30 years ago a group of individuals got together and formed the charity Action and Research for Multiple Sclerosis, when they felt there was no organisation catering for their self-help approach to MS.

Over 60 Therapy Centres were established around the UK based upon Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy. They developed to include a whole range of therapies that were found to be of benefit to people with MS.

Those centres are now individual charities and the MSRC remains as the national source of information, advice and support with that self-help ideal at its core.
