The MS Society has launched a UK wide survey to capture your experiences of MS nurses in order to protect these specialist posts. Take the MS nurse survey now (surveymonkey/s/SY5NP9T).

We've learned MS nurses across the UK are under threat with many posts being cut, diluted (so they're limited to only supporting those newly diagnosed, for example) or phased out, with vacancies not being advertised.

MS nurses play a vital role in the care and support of people with MS, but we need your experiences and opinions to demonstrate just how valuable they are.

The survey is open now and will close on 12 November. Take the survey and encourage anyone with MS to take the survey too - we need to get at least 1000 responses if we're to make a powerful statement!

Anyone who has MS who has used the services of an MS specialist nurse can complete this survey. Data collected will be treated as confidential and made anonymous; it will be made impossible to identify any individual persons in the resulting report. The closing date for responses is 12 November 2010.
