Talk by John ThompsonMultiple sclerosis (MS) is an autoimmune disease where the immune system attacks myelin, the insulating cover of nerve cells in the human body, causing damage to the central nervous system. It is a type of demyelinating disease, where the nervous system's ability to transmit signals is damaged. Symptoms can be physical, mental, or both, including double vision, vision loss, eye pain, muscle weakness, loss of sensation and coordination.
John Thompson of the MS Society will talk about the wide range of support given locally to MS sufferers.
All welcome - admission free. Tea & biscuits.
