Our regional offices currently employ 28 Field Officers who are an integral part of the MS Society’s work. They provide the practical and emotional support and assistance to people with MS and along with the volunteers, are the backbone of the organisation, without them it would be impossible to function.
We have worked since 1967 to support, educate and advocate for people with MS and their support networks. We have educated the general public, employers and health professionals about MS and actively encouraged on-going medical research to find the cause and a cure for multiple sclerosis.

Please check out our new IT project that, with your valuable support, will help us to continue our work with - and for - people with Multiple Sclerosis. We are currently aiming to:
1. Build a national database, to allow more information for research and to better tailor our support to people with MS
2. Create a national intranet to facilitate better information sharing between regions, allowing smaller and rural areas access to information, support and systems, and to help create higher minimum standards
3. Redevelop our website to bring it up to date and to include features such as archiving and searchability, RSS feeds and two way contact, which our members have asked for
4. Obtain new fundraising software for up to date tracking and more modern fundraising systems
Our other projects of a new laptop and binder are still on-going - please feel free to choose to contribute to these if you so wish.
On behalf of the MS Society of New Zealand, I would like to re-iterate that your support is invaluable and truly appreciated. Thank you.
