This has never materialised. What makes the Board think that this will be bettered by closing Multiple Sclerosis Care Homes. The board of trustees should be embarrased and ashamed to say the WE THE MULTIPLE SCLEROSIS SOCIETY OF THE UNITED KINGDOM OF GREAT BRITAIN AND NORTHERN IRELAND are taking this valuble service away

Those persons most affected are the most disabled, and therefore the most vulnerable, MS sufferers.

It would be a disastrous waste of assets, both human and bricks + mortar, to close these centres.

To me it seem highly unlikely that those needing such a respite centre will find suitable alternatives elsewhere.

It rebuilds strengths and helps maintain supportive relationships that often suffer as a result of such illnesses.
