The MS Readathon is back, paving the way for the next generation of readers.
Multiple Sclerosis Limited celebrates the 37th year of the fund-raiser.
Through the simple and enjoyable act of reading, the MS Readathon hopes to empower children to make a difference to the lives of people with multiple sclerosis, their families and carers.
Multiple Sclerosis is a disease that attacks the central nervous system.
It is the most common neurological disease in young adults, mostly women.
During August, individual pupils or schools can register by reading as many books as they like, to support people with multiple sclerosis.
Funds raised will go towards vital services including occupational, physical and social therapy, peer support, advisory and education sessions, respite care, workplace assistance and ongoing renovations to residential facilities.
