Therapists Bursary Fund

The MS Therapists Education Fund was established in 2007. Its a partnership between Biogen Idec, Bayer Healthcare, Merck Serono, Novartis Pharmaceuticals, the MS Society and the MS Trust to create a fund of money to enable therapists to best meet the needs of people with MS by expanding their MS knowledge and skills.

The fund is aimed primarily at physiotherapists, occupational therapists, speech and language therapists and psychologists, although applications from other therapists will be considered. Specifically, the fund will enable those who are working in a clinical role with people with MS to attend courses, conferences, study days or masterclasses to develop their clinical expertise and expand their skills base.

The fund will make grants at the end of February, April, and September so applications need to be timed carefully. A full timetable is shown on the Rules document.

Please note if completing an application ALL sections of the forms must be completed Incomplete forms will NOT be assessed.

If you have a query please email the MS Trust.

Please note: Applications are sent to the steering committee for review on the 1st of each month. Applications received after the 1st will not be sent for review until the following month.
