Call for MS volunteer helpers to get nominated for special awards recognition awards
“I’m delighted to be helping the MS Society celebrate the amazing volunteers who help the charity support people living with multiple sclerosis (MS) across the UK.” said MS Ambassador Ivo Graham.
“We’re looking for people in Northern Ireland to nominate volunteers who have made an impact on people affected by MS.
“Whether that’s through outstanding support, adventurous fundraising or tackling injustice on behalf of the whole MS community – we want to hear from you!”
Around 5,000 people live with MS in Northern Ireland and symptoms are different for everyone.
MS can affect how a person moves, thinks and feels. Without volunteers’ time and energy, it would be impossible for the MS Society to deliver the services and support that it does.
Ivo added: “I became an MS Society Ambassador in 2022 but have been a lifelong supporter of the charity as my mum lives with MS.
“And I’m thrilled to say I’ll be hosting the virtual Volunteer Impact Awards ceremony on Thursday 30 November at 7pm to shine a light on the inspiring people who have done incredible things to support the MS community.
