MSA Candlelight

This is our memorial event for family and friends to remember loved ones lost to MSA and funds raised from it will be directed towards MSA research. Therefore, this will be an opportunity to bring the community together for a message of hope – that one day soon research into MSA will find its cause and cure. It is an afternoon of music, poems and discussion on MSA research that ends with lighting candles and Afternoon Tea.

The event has been held at various locations across the UK, and the next one is planned for 2027. Watch this space for more information.

Dedication page

Visit our memorial dedication page called Light of Hope where you can upload a picture and short message in honour of your loved one. This creates a digital wall with all their pictures which is a lovely way to keep alive the memory of those sadly lost to MSA.

Donations are optional and will be used to support MSA research so that one day we can fulfil our vision of a world free of MSA.
