Anglesey Friends of St Eugene: Fundraising Initiative – Prayer, Service, Friendship

Several years ago the Friends groups on Anglesey decided to fundraise for the local Multiple Sclerosis Society and so support research into this condition which affects so many people.

Over the past twelve months in the region of £1500 was raised through asking parishioners to save their used postage stamps which are then sold by the MS Society to philatelists (stamp collectors!).

Recently the group in Amlwch have organised a raffle and through the generosity of Amlwch and Benllech parishioners and holiday makers £325 has been raised for the MS Society.

Your immune system normally protects you by fighting off infection, but in MS it attacks your nerves by mistake. Your nerves control lots of different parts of your body. That’s why you can get MS symptoms in many parts of your body. It’s also why everyone’s MS is different.

Once diagnosed, MS stays with you for life, but treatments and specialists can help you to manage the condition and its symptoms. We’re here to help you live well with your MS and fund research to stop MS for good.
