Donations from organisations and the community
The Leicestershire MS Centre is a self-funded charity with no local or government funding.
To keep the charity running and to help as many people as we can, we rely greatly on donations. Your donations go a long way and can massively improve the daily lives of those living with MS or similar conditions.
Fundraising
We’re always looking for new ways to raise money for the charity as it supports our mission of delivering co-ordinated, holistic and person-centred support services and therapies to people living with MS and other health conditions to manage their daily lives.
If you’d like to volunteer or support us with fundraising please get in touch on +44 (0)116 255 7104.

Match Day Parking
We offer match day car parking for Leicester City and Leicester Tigers games.
So, if you’re attending a game, please use the parking at the Freemans Common because all proceeds go towards keeping the centre running.
Prices
Match day parking from £5 to £8 depending on what car park you use.
We’re looking for volunteers to support with match day parking. If you can help please get in contact on +44 (0)116 255 7104.

This charity is super close to our hearts. On the 27th April, we are both stepping out of our comfort zones and going on one of the UK’s largest zip wire, Velocity, which is 500m long and goes over Penrhyn Quarry. We have both never done anything like this and get motion sickness just sitting in a car so wish us luck! To donate on their JustGiving page please click here.
