Lucy’s Christmas Carol Concert

Carol singing at a concert

Lucy raised: Over £6,000.

Each year Lucy and her friends organise a Christmas Carol Concert to raise money for various charities. In 2023, they decided to raise money for MS Together.

“In December, I got to stand up and speak with Amy Thompson, someone I looked up to ever since I was diagnosed with relapsing remitting MS back in 2021. I could not have been happier to have MS Together and Amy involved in my charity carols this year. I wanted to support them, as the MS Together community has been there for me every step of the way, answering any worry or question I have had. And in the moments where I’ve felt very alone and have not known who to turn to, this community has felt like a big warm hug.

The power of the MS Together community is incredible, and I know despite it only being very new, I know it is helping so many people just like me and it will go on to help so many more as it grows in the years to come.”
