Merlin MS Centre Details
The Merlin MS Centre is an independent charity located in mid-Cornwall, which provides a range of expert care, support and therapies predominantly for people whose lives are affected by Multiple Sclerosis (MS), but also for those with other neurological conditions such as Parkinson's, Stroke, ME/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. There are on average 60 people a day who come to the centre. The charity receives no Government funding and therefore derives its income from fundraising activities in the community; hiring of the centre's conference and therapy rooms to external clients, plus income from grant making trusts. Cornwall has the highest rate of MS in England, with more than 1000 people currently diagnosed with the condition - twice the national average- although the reason for this is not known. MS is a chronic condition that affects the central nervous system. Symptoms include loss of mobility, visual impairment, decreased cognitive function, incontinence, and difficulties with speech or swallowing. The therapies provided by our organisation include individual and group physiotherapy, occupational and exercise therapy; podiatry; hyperbaric oxygen therapy and complementary therapies. The support services include counselling, carer support, advice and information (the centre is an information hub for the MS Society) and the charity also has a free adapted mini-bus service. All services are heavily subsidised or provided free of charge.
