MSA Trust

Factsheets

Created by our Information and Support team, with input from health and care professionals, people living with MSA and carers, we have produced a wide range of information materials to guide you on adapting to life with multiple system atrophy.

If you need any further assistance or are concerned about anything you have read in our resources please contact our MSA Health Care Specialists.

If you would like anything in hard copy or large font please get in touch with us and we will be happy to provide this for you.

We are proud to carry the PIF TICK Kitemark on our information materials. The PIF TICK is the UK quality mark for trusted health information and lets you know what you are reading, listening to or watching is reliable and evidence-based. Find out more here www.piftick.org.uk.

 

 

We have taken every care to ensure the accuracy of the information contained in our publications and resources. However, the information should not be used as a substitute for the advice from appropriately qualified professionals. Speak to your doctor, qualified health care professional or legal professional before taking any action. Please note that personal views and opinions expressed are not necessarily endorsed by the Trust.
