The Multiple System Atrophy Trust is the UK's leading charity supporting people affected by multiple system atrophy (MSA), a rare neurological disease with no known cause or cure. At the Multiple System Atrophy Trust, our ambition is clear: a world free of MSA. Until the cause and cure are found, we are here for everyone affected by multiple system atrophy, offering expert support, trusted information and a strong, compassionate community so that no one has to face this rare neurological disease alone. Why our work matters MSA is a progressive neurological disorder that can affect movement, balance and vital autonomic functions, including bladder and blood pressure control. There is currently no known cause or cure, but the right specialist support, practical guidance and human connection can transform how people experience life with MSA. Support, connection and hope Across the UK and Ireland, our telephone and email support line, eight specialist MSA nurses and two social welfare specialists provide expert help when it matters most. Our regional and online support groups, introductory webinars, research updates, coffee mornings and carers' groups create connection, share knowledge and reduce isolation. At the same time, we fund research to uncover the cause of MSA and move us closer to a cure. You will join a supportive, collaborative and values-led charity where ideas are welcomed, relationships matter and every contribution helps improve lives. Could you unite communities, create unforgettable fundraising experiences and turn people's passion into lasting impact for everyone affected by MSA? The Trust has seven core values; we aspire to be: Led by those we serve : we strive to put those we serve at the heart of everything we do Collaborative : we will work collaboratively when this is in the best interests of those we serve and the Trust Supportive : we exist to support people affected by MSA throughout their journey; we are on their side, and we want them to know and feel this Open : we want to be open and welcoming to everyone affected by MSA who contacts us Respectful : our ethos is to critique not to criticise Committed : everyone who is involved with the Trust should be committed to doing what they can, in whatever capacity, to improve the lives of people affected by MSA Informative : we want to inform and be honest and transparent about what we say and what we do.
