Hi All
Sadly I have to say Angela Stebbings passed away on 3 rd July. Angela was a great support to our
branch with tin collecting. Angela would travel from slough to Bracknell anytime we had a collection
and always with a beautiful smile. We will sadly miss her.
Over the last few months the branch has had some good trips to the theatre and we also had afternoon tea at Boulters Lock. My scones were really great. We are looking at more short trips as this
seems to be what people are asking for. However, the seaside trip to Worthing is sold out. Look out
for our Ferret night fund raising event in November. This should be great fun and is always a great
hit. (see diary dates)
Regarding theatre trips we are getting dates all the time if you are interested in going to the theatre
please call Liz Hughes on 01628 290049. Wheelchair places are limited at the theatres but we do
manage to get some. If you are interested in any outings or want to know more about the trips that
are being planned please contact Margaret Curran 01628 671372.
Sadly we lost our venue at St Marks for our exercise class but have managed to get another room at
St Marks but this is slightly smaller so numbers are limited. Don’t forget we have Physio at Slough &
Heather wood Hospital in Ascot. If you are interested please contact Rob Thorne 07717 437064.
Rob and I over the last year have been looking for a suitable venue for people in wheelchairs but so
far we have not managed to get anywhere. We have also asked HQ to help with this but they too
cannot find a venue.
Today when I was in the chemist I saw a leaflet about “Gateway”. This is an Information & Advice
service. This service has a range of support including benefits and signposting to other organisations
for people with long term conditions. Their number is 01753 822890 & 07818567817 and is for residents of the Royal Borough of Windsor & Maidenhead. Also our Support line 07949491844. We
have 3 support volunteers, Liz, Maxine, & Mary.
Our web site is being transformed over the next 6 months so watch this space. Take care and enjoy
the summer which is here at last.

Part 2:
MS News in Brief
PRESCRIPTION CHARGES FACE MORE RISES _-prescription charges went up in April by
20p and will rise again in 2015! The MS Society is a member of the Prescription Charge Coalition and
has already received thousands of complaints that the cost of their medication is preventing them
from taking it as prescribed. Prescription charges have raised in 33 out of the last 34 years!
Take Action and sign the petition which can be found on the website
www.prescriptionchargescoalition.org.uk
(MS Matters issue 115 pg 4)
CARE BILL GETS ROYAL ASSENT : It has care Bill was introduced into Parliament—it has
now been signed off by the Queen and will come into full force in April 2015. The Care Act has been
referred to as the biggest overhaul of the care and support system in the past 60 years. It will introduce measures that aim to improve the support for people with MS, namely,
1.
A new National minimum eligibility threshold, meaning that local authorities will NOT be able to
restrict eligibility beyond this threshold.
2.
Set out in law that carers are treated the same way as that people they care for.
3.
A cap on the costs that people have to pay for care in their lifetime.
(MS Matters issue 115 pg 5)
DISCLOSING MS AT WORK You shouldn’t have to tell a prospected employer you have MS
and by law they shouldn’t ask. If you are specifically asked whether you are registered disabled for
the purpose of the equality Act, you must tell them. You must also disclose if you’re in the armed
forces or if not disclosing could cause a health & safety issue. The most common time to disclose is
after a job has been offered. Before you disclose talk to your MS nurse who can guide you to
appropriate sources of information and legal support. The Equality Act 2010 means disabled
employees have more rights at work than ever. MS is classed as a disability from point of diagnosis
and you are covered by the law.
(MS Matters issue115 pg 32)
MS Life 2014 update
Nearly 3,300 people joined us in Manchester in April for MS Life. The 65 different workshops across
the weekend provided a great opportunity for people to learn more about MS research and symptom
management, as well as about changes to benefits and services. If you didn’t make it to the event,
you can watch videos of the research talks and highlights of the weekend on our YouTube channel:
http://www.youtube.com/MSSociety MS Life is a great way of engaging with the wider MS
community, especially people who are newly diagnosed. Twenty per cent of attendees had been
diagnosed within the last two years and 75 per cent of those said that they were now going to look
into volunteering with us.
Find us on Facebook: MS Society East Berkshire
Treat Me Right campaign begins with a bang
As you know, MS Week marked the beginning of Treat Me Right – our new long-term campaign
calling for all people with MS to get timely access to the treatments that are right for them.
The campaign launch was a great success and 300 people attended Parliamentary receptions
across the UK, securing the public support of numerous ministers, policy makers and influencers in
every nation. More than 4,500 people have signed up to the campaign online.
We’ve had some great support at branch level, particularly with the Letter to Editor you shared with
local papers during MS Week. Of special note is our Luton branch, which hosted an information
stand all week at the Luton & Dunstable Hospital and was joined on the Friday by Gavin Shuker MP.
Thank you to everyone who helped make MS Week a success across the UK.
But this is just the first step. As the new NICE guideline for the treatment of MS in England and
Wales demonstrates (see next article), our work is by no means done. Watch this space for how you
can support the next phase of the campaign and if you haven’t already done so, please add your
name today www.treatmerightms.org.uk
(Team Spirit July 2014 edition)
MS Society fights NICE disappointment
The National Institute for Care and Health Excellence (NICE) published its draft clinical guideline
for MS in April. We were very disappointed with the guideline and have been putting pressure on
NICE to make significant amendments.
The guideline itself was drafted behind closed doors – our request to present evidence to the NICE
MS Guideline Development Group last October was declined.
The guideline proposes blocking access to two treatments that are proven to significantly improve
quality of life for people with MS – Fampyra and Sativex – which help people to walk more easily,
and manage painful muscle spasms. The draft guideline also fails to recommend that people with
MS be reviewed by MS specialists, such as an MS nurse or neurologist.
In our detailed policy response, we have urged NICE to reconsider its decisions on the treatments
and reiterated the value of MS specialists in the treatment, care and support of people with MS.
We also published an open letter in the media which outlined our concerns.
NICE are currently reviewing responses to the draft, and we expect the final guideline to be published in October this year.

Withdrawn:
Getting the best from health care services
The existing booklet is out of date and we have no plans at present to produce a new one. This
means we are withdrawing it from the website and online shop.
However, you can still find information on health care on our main website, www.mssociety.org.uk,
the Treat Me Right website, www.treatmerightms.org.uk, and on the NHS choices website,

Getting involved in research
The research pages on our website are full of useful resources, such as details of the research projects we’re currently funding and new treatments in the pipeline. We’d like to highlight our ‘Be in a
Study’ page because it provides an excellent way for people affected by MS to find out more about
participating in research: http://www.mssociety.org.uk/research/get-involved OR telephone:
020 8438 0822 Recently some researchers have been contacting members or branches directly for
help with recruitment, so we’d like to request that these queries are forwarded on to the research
team – contact details below. We prefer researchers to always contact the research team first for
the following reasons:
to ensure that the research has full ethical approval and is led by an experienced researcher
to ensure branches aren’t sent too many requests
to allow the research team to offer further support to researchers
to save time and administration
By uploading research projects directly onto our website, we can allow more people to read about
opportunities. We may also ask branches to distribute information, but this is done on a case-bycase basis.

You Have MS or care for someone with MS but do the MS professionals have
you on their records?
There will be a number of you diagnosed with MS some years ago but have fallen off the radar.
People with MS need to be seen once every year by an MS Nurse, not necessarily a consultant, to
keep your file active. I have recently spoken to a Carer of an MS person, who’s wife has had MS for
a long time but has not spoken to an MS professional for years. He had no idea of the financial help
they could have and practical assistance through Social Services. Recently he has been signposted
by our Support Team and is accessing many levels of help.
If you have any worries or feel you have ‘dropped off the radar’ Please contact your
MS Professionals on 01753 638890 and leave a message for a call back
