MS Writers Group (previously Greystones Scribblers) were established by East-Wicklow branch of MS Ireland in 2012 and were the first and currently only Multiple Sclerosis affected writers’ group in Ireland. First Flight is the group’s inaugural publication of poetry and short stories with financial assistance from Wicklow County Arts Office. The result is an inspirational book of well-honed stories that amuse, entertain and sometimes pull at the heart strings. Profits from the sale of First Flight (Boland Press) were donated to MS Ireland National Care Centre. The book is available from MS Ireland Care Centre, Rathgar, Bridge Street Books Wicklow Town, Dubray Books Bray, and the publishers Boland Press. - Sorry, Sold Out!
The MS Writers Group held an evening of short stories and poetry as part of World MS Day, on Monday 26 May 2025 at 7.30 in the Open Door, Bray, Co. Wicklow. The evening was MC'd by Carol Boland (facilitator) and included work by Julia Hart, Carol De Butleir, Mark Talbot, Louise Wardell, and Mark Mitchell. Music at the interval was by Billy Proctor. By all accounts, the evening was a great success, both for entertainment value, and as a fund-raiser for the East-Wicklow branch of MS Ireland. Raffle
