A local campaigner is hosting a charity ball in aid of Multiple Sclerosis (MS) Society Scotland, and Press readers are in with a chance of winning tickets to the event.

Diane Steedman has held several fundraisers for the charity over the years after her husband, Ian, was diagnosed with MS in 2018.

MS causes your immune system to attack your nerves, and this causes a range of symptoms including issues with vision, tiredness, and walking problems.

According to the MS Society, there are over 17,000 people with MS in Scotland.
