About us

This initiative has emerged from the South West Multiple Sclerosis (SWMS) Network.  The network was established in 2019 with the aim of MS services in Devon and Cornwall working collaboratively to reduce variability in care and research opportunities for people with MS across the region.

One of the initiatives of the SWMS Network is coordinated research, and the NIHR Clinical Research Network South West Peninsula (CRN SWP) has been an active member of this work stream. By working together as a region we will have the best chance of ensuring the South West retains its ability to attract and develop clinical and academic research projects. We also want to ensure that opportunities for people across Somerset, Devon and Cornwall to participate in research are more consistent. The development of this website by the NIHR CRN SWP is an important step towards this aim.
