Abstract
It is estimated that around 40000 people in the UK live with advanced multiple sclerosis (MS). These individuals experience a range of symptoms, and can often have moderate to severe impairment, with extensive care needs. In this article, the MS Trust provides relevant information on how to care for people with advanced MS, provides advice on future planning, and signposts individuals with the advanced MS, as well as their family and carers, to accessible online resources.
