Watch the film, get inspired and prepare yourself to Demand More from your life with MS.
We’ve been finding out how challenging mindsets and potentially even doctors can help prevent people living with MS from settling for a life which isn’t as full as it could be. It’s all about Demanding More.
We’ve been encouraging people living with MS to have more open and honest “Pillow Talk” about sex, family planning, relationships and parenting.
We’ve been accessing all areas of life with MS, getting to the heart of the who’s, what’s, where’s and why’s of MS symptoms.
We’ve been exploring brains – from brain atrophy, to neuroplasticity to cognitive reserve.
To that, we’d add – then we can Demand More. That’s why we want to equip all those living with MS with the information they need to better understand their condition and the science behind its effects. After all, knowledge is power. From understanding why it’s important to protect your brain health to why MS causes such a range of cognitive and physical symptoms, these educational articles will help you get under the skin and into the head of MS. All to make you more in control of your life with MS, giving you the ultimate confidence to approach your doctor, or whoever can make a difference to your life, and ultimately Demand More.

André’s journey with MS began with tingles in his legs and a colleague who had MS themselves. Yet at first, like many before him, André resisted diagnosis. It was only when he had to go to A&E, did he begin to Demand More. His well-meaning manager crucially flew him to the best neurologist, but it was only three neurologists later that his breakthrough came.
