The next instalment of our thank you messages is from MS Society Milton Keynes & District! Read on to find out how they say thank you to all their hard-working volunteers!
Milton Keynes & District MS Society
Milton Keynes & District MS Society Group is operated entirely by local volunteers to support the needs of local people with MS and their family and friends. Using the framework provided by the National MS Society, volunteers provide a range of provisions to promote friendship, fitness and financial support. These services include a range of regular and one of social events where people with MS and those close to them can share common experiences and chat about all sorts. To promote fitness, volunteers organise weekly swimming, mat and seated Pilates sessions designed specifically to take account of the needs of people with MS. Free accessible transport for those that require it to attend these events is also organised by our volunteers.
The Group also funds Health and Wellbeing Grants, grants for Carers, a priority referral scheme to MK CAB and life coaching sessions. As the Group is completely self-financing it relies on volunteers to undertake both regular and one off fundraising activities. Such a wide range of activities keeps all our existing volunteers very busy doing a wide range of tasks and the Group is always eager to recruit new volunteers to assist with all our activities.
Thank you!
As the Group would not exist without volunteers, everyone of them is very appreciated for all they do to make the Group so successful and we thank them all.
Equally, new volunteers with or without MS are always very welcome and can make contact with the Group. Email miltonkeynes@mssociety.org.uk or tel 01908 239151 to leave a message on our answer phone.
