In this exercise and MS themed episode we discuss how exercise can benefit people with MS. In the past, people with multiple sclerosis were advised to avoid exertion. It turns out that this was not good advice. Regular, moderate exercise is now known to be an important part of maintaining good health and well-being for people with MS. 

In this episode we talk to Claire the head of the information and engagement team at the MS Trust, about MS and exercise and how it can it can help with many MS symptoms and then we will be chat to Emily and Nick who both have MS about how they find exercising helps them.
