The Society holds 2 Carers Camps each year.

Carers Camps are run by the Society twice each year. Meetings are held on a regular basis and are organised and run by the Society. Their purpose is to provide support, information and networking for the unpaid family members who are in the role of "carer" to the person with multiple sclerosis.

Carers Camps rely heavily on Society staff volunteering their services.
