Welcome to the
Multiple Sclerosis Wellness Centre
of Vancouver Island

PROVIDING DIRECT SUPPORT FOR THOSE LIVING WITH MULTIPLE SCLEROSIS ON VANCOUVER ISLAND

The MS Wellness Centre is a grass-roots registered Canadian charity. We are governed by a volunteer board of directors and fuelled by a community of volunteers who graciously giver their time providing services to a community in need.

Our History

On December 16, 2016 the Multiple Sclerosis Society of Canada closed to the doors of Canada’s only MS Centre offering physiotherapy services, a fitness centre and several other much needed services. Hundreds of people living with the disease were left with no-where to go.

Members of the community ban together and formed a new organization – the MS Wellness Centre of Vancouver Island – to deliver these much-needed quality of life services. The centre provides programs to people living with Multiple Sclerosis who are often on a fixed income and cannot afford the services needed to maintain a healthy and active life. The programs provide the added value of creating a safe space for people living with MS to exchange information and support one another.

We are here to:

  1. provide quality of life services for people with MS;
  2. support people with MS in making their own decisions about issues that impact their lives;
  3. promote active participation of people with MS in their larger community.

We are a registered Canadian charity based on Vancouver Island, British Columbia. We provide direct support to people living with multiple sclerosis. Membership and programs are free.
