Blackburn with Darwen Hyndburn & Clitheroe MS Group

10/04/2026

❗️NOTICE❗️

Following a meeting with the remaining volunteers
It has been decided that it’s time to close the Blackburn Branch of the society.
Since the days of Covid the branch has struggled recruiting new volunteers and sadly we lost a long standing volunteer recently, which takes the branch to just 3 volunteers who have their own Health issues to contend with.

In view of this decision we would like to see the funds that are in the current account divided equally with our choice of local branches in east Lancashire
It is our wishes that the money that’s accumulated stays in the north west and used for Ms Suffers 🧡

Thankyou for your support over the years.
Group Co-ordinator.
