This year marks 50 years of progress in driving awareness, research, and support for people with MS.
MS Australia would like to acknowledge the hard work and dedication of all those who helped MS Australia to become what it is today – a passionate group of people working to ultimately find a cure for MS.
To mark this anniversary MS Australia has selected 50 recipients from those many worthy Australians to be awarded the MS Australia 50 Years President’s Medal. With this medal, we at MS Australia recognise unwavering and passionate dedication, recognising the outstanding, consistent and selfless service and many contributions towards the MS movement in Australia.
