Welcome to the 2008 MS Readathon!

During MS Awareness Week, June 1 –7, MS Australia was spreading the message of Freedom from MS- to free the 18,000 Australians who are currently living with MS from the uncertainty and unpredictability that come hand in hand with this disease. MS Readathon reading commenced on the first day of MS Awareness Week. For more information on local media opportunities for MS, visit the http://www.msaustralia.org.au/awareness/media-room.asp

Our Media Centre contains relevant information about the MS Readathon to assist journalists in their coverage of Australia’s premier reading-based fundraiser: MS Readathon.

This includes the latest media releases, file photographs, radio community service announcement downloads, advertising downloads, MS Readathon and multiple sclerosis facts and statistics, plus information about upcoming activities.

Help change the lives of Australians living with MS by celebrating the success of participants and schools in your local area who are raising funds this June.

Thanks to the generous support of our sponsor Network Ten, Pip and Dan from Toasted TV have put together this fantastic Community Service Announcement. It’s designed to encourage children of all ages to register for the MS Readathon, and to help people living with multiple sclerosis.
