Through expert-led presentations, case studies and contributions from those with lived experience, attendees gain a deeper understanding of MSA, its real-life impact and practical strategies for effective support. Previous topics have included MSA diagnosis, symptom management, bladder and bowel issues, sleep and breathing issues, communication and swallowing support, psychological wellbeing, and advance care planning.
Examples of our past Study Day programmes can be viewed via the programmes linked below.
Feedback from previous attendees highlights the value of the days:
“Thank you for putting on the event. I think it makes a big difference having something like this. As a professional working with people with MSA it is not always easy finding information that is relevant. The MSA Trust offers such a good resource.”
“Just great, my patient was so happy I was doing this and looking forward to me giving her an update.”
“It has far exceeded my expectations. I think I can honestly say this has been the best, most informative, insightful and well-run course I have ever attended. I arrived with so little knowledge but am feeling empowered and well informed. Thank you so much.”
To maximise the reach of our small organisation, the location of each Study Day changes each year. Our next Study Day will take place in Birmingham in 2027, continuing our commitment to providing high-quality education for professionals supporting people affected by MSA.
