MPS diagnoses are often delayed as symptoms & severity vary, & many specialists either aren’t aware of MPS or aren’t able to piece symptoms together. The @IMPSN’s mission is to speed up identification of key MPS symptoms & raise awareness of the urgency of reaching a diagnosis.

Great win for @Wrexham_AFC today. Here we are featuring 'On the Ropes' in their documentary Welcome to Wrexham. It's a special place for us as we did our first live radio show with Janice Long on BBC Radio Wales, next door to the racecourse ground. Can we come play

The impact the MPS Society makes is huge. Proud of and thankful for this incredible organisation x
In 2022 we supported 60 new members, 27 disease types & 300 in depth cases. We celebrated our 40th year as a rare disease charity. Focusing on mental wellbeing, we introduced more counselling & advocacy services. Read our Impact Report here: https://t.co/Nx1rScGe68.
