Ever wondered what a social network for people with multiple sclerosis would look like? Shift.ms is it, with the added benefit of safeguards to ensure our free community is a positive space, dedicated to supporting people with, or who’ve been affected by, MS.

"It's an app that carries proper authority, not a wild west. It's a trusted space where you can decide how much interaction you want. Whether you want to fully engage or just gather your thoughts, it's up to you." - Gemma, Shift.ms member
