This was such a wonderful event to be part of. If you are affected by MS and have children check out @DigestingSci - it's genius!
On Saturday, we hosted a Digesting Science event at the @SWMSCentre in Exeter and were joined by Met Office and former BBC weather presenter @alexdeakin!
The event helps explain MS symptoms to children who have a parent living with MS, through a series of fun activities.
