MS: Busting the Myths
August 26, 2025 | News, Newsletter
Welcome to our August 2025 Edition of MS Voice, your go-to place for the latest news, updates, and real life stories from Multiple Sclerosis New Zealand. So sit back, relax, and catch up with us.
As we approach September, we are gearing up for our Awareness Week campaign. We are promoting the importance of early diagnosis and treatment to preserve brain health, challenge misconceptions, and educate on the possible early symptoms of MS. We are sharing many new faces and their stories throughout the campaign alongside some new materials to help educate people in your community. Please consider reaching out to your local MS society and donating your time to raising awareness and funds in your community.
This edition provides you an overview of our recent annual Community Advisors training that took place in Christchurch over 2 days. There’s an informative article about vaccinations for people with MS, information on hot to participate in this years ECTRIMS Patient Day, and our submissions for the Online Casino Gambling Bill and the Healthy Futures Amendment Bill – and a whole lot more!
