Move Smart MS is a national @MSIRELAND programme funded by Rethink Ireland which offers specialised, tailored, exercise programmes online for people with MS.
As part of World MS Day we are holding pre-budget briefing in Leinster House now. One of key asks is to expand #Slaintecare physiotherapy initiative in the West to the rest of the country - there are 9k people in Ireland with MS.
For #WorldMSDay , we'd like to highlight our sister program @active_neuro which offers exercise classes via specialist physios to anyone living with a neurological condition in the West or Mid-West
