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 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!
