The MS Mega Swim is a fun team swimming relay event where teams have a swimmer in the water for the entire 24 hours raising much needed funds for people living with multiple sclerosis – swim for 20 minutes or 2 hours, it’s up to you!

Swimmers of all ages and abilities are welcome – swim one lap or fifty, for ten minutes or four hours! You just need one team member in the pool at all times.

Register today and join the 2022 MS Canberra Mega Swim.

Multiple sclerosis is a chronic and often debilitating disease which attacks the central nervous system (the brain, spinal cord and optic nerves). It is the most common neurological disease in young adults and often attacks people at the time of their lives when they are planning families and building a career.

The average age of diagnosis is between 20 and 40 years of age, although symptoms may begin much earlier, and three out of four people living with multiple sclerosis are women.

No two cases of multiple sclerosis are identical and the severity and progression of the condition cannot be predicted.
