MS for MS

MELBOURNE SUPPORTERS for MS

A few weeks ago my niece Louisa, aged in her mid-thirties received the news that she had MS - multiple sclerosis.

The family didn't know much about MS but we're learning quickly and want to do all we can to support Louisa, her immediate family - husband Simon and two lovely young kids Maya and Eden and all people affected by MS.

So, we've formed a group called "Team Lou". We've entered the MS Walk and Fun Run Melbourne and will be pounding the pavement for a reason on Sunday 6 June.

We are walking and running to support people affected by Multiple Sclerosis, and we need your help.

Louisa's family are all Demon supporters. Her grandfather, Albert Reilly, played for the Demon Reserves back in the early 1950's and we're calling on Demon fans to get behind our efforts on 6 June by supporting Team Lou in the MS Walk and Fun Run.

Multiple Sclerosis is a disease of the central nervous system affecting more young adult Australians than any other neurological condition. Your donation will go towards providing a wide range of equipment, support and services to those people affected by this debilitating disease.

Did you know?

- The average age of diagnosis of MS is just 30 years

- 3 times more women than men are affected by MS

- There is no known cause or cure
