2026 Melbourne MS Walk Run + Roll

NO ONE SHOULD FACE MS ALONE!

Can you imagine waking up one day unable to do the everyday things you would usually take for granted? Like not being able to see properly (or at all), unable to get out of bed, walk to the phone to call someone – anyone – or live a life without pain?

All of a sudden, your world has changed.

Multiple sclerosis is a chronic and often debilitating disease which attacks the central nervous system (the brain, spinal cord and optic nerves). It is the most common neurological disease in young adults and often attacks people at a time in their lives when they are planning families and building a career. Three out of four people living with MS are women.

With your support, we can allow people living with multiple sclerosis access to vital support services, like MS Connect, MS Peer Support and MS Employment Support Programs. We’ll also be helping bring new treatments closer to reality, investing in repairing myelin damage to restore function that has been lost for people with progressive forms of the disease.

On behalf of over 37,756 Aussies living with multiple sclerosis – THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT!

2026 walk for MS

Saturday 11th Apr
Hi, my name is Nickie,
As some of you may know I participate in the MS walk every year. This walk is personal for me and for my family. We walk to support everyone with MS, but particularly to Honour a member of our own family who was diagnosed at the age of 22.
Every day is a challenge. Simple tasks like getting out of bed, having a shower and getting dressed can be overwhelming, exhausting, and fraught with the challenges of aching and shaking limbs, dizziness, nausea, headaches. The list goes on and the symptoms are different for each individual.
If I can do this small thing, walk once a year and raise some money to find a cure, improve support services, and make this disease visible, then that’s the least I can do. 
Can I count on your support?

A BIG THANK YOU TO MY SUPPORTERS
