Our Mission
Our mission is to support and work with persons with Multiple Sclerosis and their families to better understand and cope with the many varied symptoms of the disease; to increase public awareness and understanding of MS, what can be done to help and the resources presently available to people with MS; to raise necessary funds to finance the society and to assist MS sufferers with medical needs.
Please join us the 1st Monday of each month at our support group meetings held at the Christ Church West Hall in Warwick. Christ Church is across from the Belmont golf course on Middle Road. Please use the Ord Rd entrance for easy parking.
All are welcome to join us at 6:30pm!Should a Public Holiday fall on the first Monday of the month, the meeting is the following Monday.
On Friday, May 4, the Multiple Sclerosis Society of Bermuda held its annual Tag Day at several locations in the City of Hamilton as well as in St George and Somerset and select locations in Smith’s, Devonshire, Paget, Warwick and Southampton. We’d like to thank each and every one of you that helped by donating funds to our Society. We’d also like to give a huge thank you to those individuals who gave their time to tag for us, the local clubs that lent their time tagging Meals on Wheels, Summerhaven, Hamilton Lions Club, as well as the vendors that permitted us to tag outside their premises.
Without your continued support the Multiple Sclerosis Society would not be able to provide assistance for medical expenses and support, education and public awareness. Thanks to all of you, we raised $11,000 which will certainly help towards offsetting the cost of medication for our members.
Once again, thank you one and all.

While the MS Society has a multitude of members who suffer with MS, we know there are others in Bermuda who are currently living with this crazy disease! We certainly respect those who are not interested in becoming part of the MS Society but do hope you'll be willing to anonymously share your story so that we can obtain a more accurate database. Please visit our Survey page so that we can gather accurate statistics.
The Society is pleased to be one of the chosen charities to benefit from this year's Caitlin Bermuda End to End. We cheered and helped man a waterstop. Here are some members cheering on the walkers and bikers
