For Sinead Curran from Cavan, World MS Day is an important opportunity to raise awareness of multiple sclerosis and to help people understand the physical and emotional impact of living with the condition.
Sinead is sharing her story as part of MS Ireland's World MS Day 2026 campaign, MS Journeys: Many Faces, One Community, which highlights the many different experiences of people living with MS across Ireland and the importance of support, understanding and community connection.
