Some Monday Motivation to kick start the week.

Focusing on some body care.

🌟 Hydrate first thing.

A glass of water is an easy win.

🌟Move gently.

Stretch, walks, or dance. Movement, not punishment.

🌟Sleep in Self Care.

Even going to bed 15 minutes earlier helps.

🌟Eat to nourish, not to "fix."

Aim for balance not control.

Living with Multiple Sclerosis is something that often goes unseen, but it’s felt every single day. This week is a reminder to raise awareness, show understanding, and support those navigating life with MS.

🎉 Happy 80th Birthday to our volunteer Diana! 🎉

Doesn’t Diana look incredible for 80?

We asked Diana what keeps her passionate about volunteering, and here’s what she shared:

“In 2008, I was looking for something to do that would keep me active and mentally stimulated. I learned about this programme, which teaches people how to live well and manage life with long-term health conditions such as diabetes, arthritis, pain, mobility issues and heart conditions.

I took the FREE 6-week course, and at the end, I was asked if I’d like to become a volunteer tutor. I said yes, as I wanted to give back for all the support I had received.

I completed my training and became a qualified tutor in June 2009. I can’t believe 17 years have passed and I still love what I do. It’s not your typical volunteering role. Over the years, I’ve met so many wonderful people. Some have gone on to become tutors, others have become lifelong friends.

Volunteering is the most rewarding thing I’ve ever done. I feel so much love and kindness from the people we support, and it gives me a real sense of purpose. This programme and our team, our little family has given me so much support over the years.

Volunteering teaches compassion, listening, caring, and helping others, as well as guiding people to further support when needed. I would recommend it to anyone with a bit of spare time - you’ll be surprised how much you get back. It feels amazing!”

Thank you, Diana, for your incredible dedication, kindness, and inspiration. Here’s to you on your special day! 🎂🎉🎊

April is Bowel Cancer Awareness Month, and it’s a reminder that self-care isn’t just about relaxing… it’s also about listening to your body.

We don’t always talk about gut health, but noticing changes early can make a real difference.

Things like:

• Persistent stomach pain
• Changes in bowel habits
• Blood in your stool
• Unexplained weight loss

These aren’t things to ignore — getting checked is an act of self-care.

Looking after your health inside and out matters. If something doesn’t feel right, trust yourself and speak to a professional or contact our Information & Outreach Support Service on 01922 602610 who would be happy to advise you.
