Honour World Multiple Sclerosis Month with Abu Dhabi’s Move for MS initiative
In honour of World Multiple Sclerosis Month this March, the National MS Society (NMSS) has launched the Move for MS initiative in Abu Dhabi.
Supporting people living with multiple sclerosis (MS), Move for MS will take place all through Ramadan.
The community can get engaged with the event through a range of inclusive sports activities. Whether it’s walking, jogging, cycling, swimming, hiking, or any other form of physical engagement, participants of all abilities are welcome to join in.
The initiative’s mission extends beyond personal enrichment, striving to foster a culture of giving by encouraging donations to support those affected by MS.

NMSS has partnered with Mubadala, Abu Dhabi Stem Cells Center, ADQ, Cleveland Clinic Abu Dhabi and Lulu Group, who will support the initiative by encouraging their employees to Move for MS.
Participating staff can measure their steps through the STEPPI app in solidarity with people living with MS. STEPPI is a fitness tracking application that allows users to track their steps and physical activity, fostering a sense of community and solidarity.
Several studios and gyms, including Inspire Sports, YogaOne Studio, Motion Cycling, Chapter Studio, The Bridge Wellness Hub, Seven Wellness Club, and CRANK Fitness, are all part of Move for MS and will donate proceeds from designated classes to NMSS.
The Move for MS campaign aligns with NMSS’ core mandates of providing support and resources, raising awareness, and contributing to global research efforts towards a cure for MS.
