Our Services > Support Networks
Many of our members organise support and friendship networks for people with MS and
for carers of people with MS across Auckland.
These groups meet to socialise in a relaxed and friendly environment, sharing support, understanding and humour throughout the year. All groups receive support from MS Auckland Region, and can be facilitated if requested.
New faces are always welcome and good friendships often develop!
Contact us if you are interested in starting a network or group in your area.
