Any money raised for MS Together will help us achieve our four main goals for 2023:
We are a brand new charity and managed entirely by volunteers. So there’s lots of ways you can support us:
Increase our reach
Increase our reach
Our mission is to support as many young people with MS as possible. To do this, we need to reach as many young people as possible. Funds will be used to design, print and distribute promotional materials, and increase our online presence.
Add to our support offering
We want to make sure that we are offering the support that young people need. Our research shows that our community would like us to facilitate and provide informative talks on various topics and provide a peer-to-peer support network. Costs for this will include conducting research, training volunteers, advertising and launching our new offering.
Improve the representation of young people living with MS
We aim to educate the general public about the needs and experiences of young people living with MS. We will do this through developing and taking part in national and international awareness campaigns, increasing the profile and coverage of MS in young people in the media, and demonstrating partnership working with professional bodies and like-minded organisations to make sure the MS community is better represented.
Implement new and improved processes
We need to cover a number of start-up costs to make sure that our processes are efficient and safe. Some examples include purchasing business tools and an online workspace for our volunteers, upgrading our marketing and CRM tools and processes. It would also include general admin costs for the day-to -day running of MS Together.
1. Volunteering
We have a huge variety of volunteering roles. If you can spare a few hours per week and have experience in social media, fundraising, marketing, events or finance, please get in touch!
2. Collaborations / Partnerships / Sponsorship
We would be open to collaborating with people or organisations who can offer talks, support, and products that benefit our community. We would also love to work with corporate partners who could support us in recruitment, fundraising and sponsored events.
3. Connect with us on social media
We have found that social media has been a great way for us to reach the people we need to. So please follow us and engage with our content as much as possible. Don’t worry, despite our offering being mostly aimed at our target audience of 18-35 year olds, our social media channels are open to everyone and we hope that many people can benefit from the content we put on there, including over 35’s, friends, family members, carers and colleagues of people with MS, or others that want to know more about MS.
