NeuroSpeak: Do you think we should start UCTRIMS?

Do we need a separate umbrella organisation for MS in the UK? #NeuroSpeak #UCTRIMS

I received an email from a colleague over the weekend who suggested that the MS Community in the UK prepare for a Hard Brexit and start an organisation, and annual meeting, called UCTRIMS (UK Committee for the Treatment and Research In MS). What do you think? 

There are so many issues that need to be addressed regarding the management of MS in the UK, which involves neurologists, clinical nurse specialist, other HCPs and stakeholders, that UCTRIMS may be an appropriate umbrella organisation for these shared activities.

I agree UCTRIMS is a good idea, but if the enthusiasm for UCTRIMS is anything like that for the MS Trust's neurology masterclass it will be a non-starter. Please note due to lack of interest the MS Trust have now officially cancelled their Neurology Masterclass on the 7th November. The MS Clinical Nurse Specialist meeting will still be going ahead. Barts-MS will be attending we have several activities planned for the meeting.
