Massive Sale for Caithness MS Sufferers
On Friday and Saturday, 27/28th May, 2005, Wick Rotary Club will be organising a massive sale at the Wick Bridge Street Church Hall to raise cash for Caithness folk struck down with MS.

MS can strike anyone. Around 50 people are diagnosed every week. It tends to happen in the prime of life when job and family responsibilities are at their most demanding, so the impact of what is usually a lifelong condition goes far beyond the individual.

Many MS sufferers, here in Caithness, are housebound and Caithness MS provides treatments and therapies for them at their home and at premises in Wick and Thurso, free of charge. The NHS does not help with this care and the Society is entirely dependent on private fundraising.

So if you would like to support Wick Rotary Club and help them raise hundreds for Caithness folk struck down with this condition, please donate your books, video tapes and CD�s.

You can do this by dropping them into Georgesons, Solicitors, 22 Bridge Street, Wick or 19 Traill Street, Thurso, Reids the Chemists in High Street, Wick and MacGregors, Vets, Airport Industrial Estate, Wick.

The sale coincides with the French Market and so you can you can feed stomach and soul by purchasing food at the market and books, videos and CDs at the sale. Please come along.

In the meantime, should you require any further information about the vital work that Caithness MS Patient Support undertakes, then please do not hesitate to contact Jan McEwan on 01955 606672.
