Season 2 - Episode 2: Claire Cameron

Hello and welcome to MS is Chronic. In this latest episode I was joined by the fabulous Claire Cameron who shares her personal and professional story.

This is a great listen and like me I'm sure you'll learn a few things about living with a family member who has multiple sclerosis as Claire did. And also what it is like being part of a team running a successful Community Centre a fairly remote part of West Scotland.

Claire is the Long Term Conditions Outreach and Community Awareness at The Snowdrop Centre in Mid Argyll.
