Our evidence

Our evidence underpins everything we do.

It's one of the ways we can make sure we're using our resources to make the most impact we can. We use our evidence to influence, campaign and develop services for people affected by MS. And we share it to help our community do the same.

Where does our evidence come from?

We carry out, commission and fund research. And we work with our community to gather evidence on a range of issues affecting people with MS.
