MS Ireland welcomed members of the community, supporters, and local stakeholders to its upcoming Limerick Hub for a special preview event held at Springfield, Singland Road this week.
The event, hosted on the site of the new building, offered guests an exclusive glimpse into MS Ireland’s ambitious plans for a centre of excellence dedicated to rehabilitation, support, and inclusion for people living with Multiple Sclerosis (MS) and other neurological conditions.
Visitors were invited to walk through the site, view architectural drawings, and engage with MS Ireland staff and volunteers over coffee, light refreshments, and open conversation. The event served as both an information session and a rallying call for support, with attendees encouraged to play a role in shaping what will become a transformative facility for the Mid-West region.
“We were delighted to welcome so many members of the community to our future Limerick Hub,” said Ava Battles, CEO. “Though the building is still in its early stages, this event was about sharing the dream, and showing people the incredible potential it holds.”
Once complete, the centre will feature Limerick’s first fully accessible gym for people with MS and similar neurological conditions, alongside dedicated spaces for education, peer support, and community programmes. The new facility aims to address long-standing gaps in accessible, community-based neurological services in the region.
MS Ireland expressed its sincere thanks to all who attended and engaged with the vision. The organisation is continuing to seek financial support, partnerships, and local input to help bring the project to full realisation.
MS Ireland is the national organisation supporting over 10,000 people living with Multiple Sclerosis and their families. Through advocacy, services, and community engagement, MS Ireland works to improve quality of life, promote independence, and ensure that no one faces MS alone.
