MS Readathon

Throughout November, the rather wonderful MS Readathon takes place in schools and homes across Ireland. The MS Readathon is an initiative of the Multiple Sclerosis Society of Ireland and it has been running since 1988! 

The MS Readathon is a simple but truly special event that helps children improve their literacy skills, develop a lasting love of reading, go on epic adventures and raise money to support people affected by MS in Ireland.

MS Ireland is the only national organisation that provides expert information and specialist services in communities to support people living with Multiple Sclerosis and their families.

The money children fundraise as part of MS Readathon is incredibly important to people living with MS in Ireland and their families.It powers vital services provided by MS Ireland that ease worries, increase confidence and improves quality of life for thousands of people. These services include our unique respite and therapy centre, Information Line phone service and one-to-one support sessions.
