About MS
Multiple Sclerosis or ‘multiple scarring;’ is an incurable, chronic, and often disabling disease that randomly attacks and scars the protective insulation that surrounds the nerve fibres (myelin) in the brain and spinal cord. The progress, severity and symptoms are different for everyone. Symptoms range from tingling and numbness to paralysis and blindness. MS is particularly devastating because both physical and emotional effects are so unpredictable.
Donna Bradley-Robinson
Donna was is an ex-Police officer and was forced to give up policing due to the progression of her MS. Now as an Ambassador for MS she has taken on a new fight – raising funds and awareness for the disease.
Get your friends and family together and head down to the Mornington Racecourse for lunch with us on the beautiful Mornington Peninsula and help support MS Research and Services to give life back to those living with the disease.
