Our Objectives

• To promote awareness and the benefits of recycling used clothing,

shoes, mobile phones, books, ink cartridges, cardboard and scrap

metal.

• To reduce carbon emissions and divert materials that can be recycled

going to landfill

• To help people in developing countries gain access to affordable

clothing

Personal NoteWhy Dolly Textile Recycling is working in conjunction with MS Ireland“We consider family one of the most important aspects of life. When one of our own was diagnosed with MS three years ago, this came as a huge blow. Through this experience we have learned of all the wonderful services at MS Ireland and the dedicated members of staff who offer amazing support to not only the sufferer but the family as well. Dolly Textile Recycling was formed to help raise much-needed funds for MS Ireland. I would encourage anyone to go along to any of the nationwide voluntary branches or the Care Centre in Rathgar to see for themselves the difference this service makes to those affected.”(Stephen Dolly)

What is Multiple Sclerosis (MS)?Multiple Sclerosis is a disease of the brain and spinal cord (central nervous system). The central nervous system acts like a switchboard sending electrical messages along the nerves to various parts of the body. These electrical messages instruct the body to perform various tasks, such as movement or thought. Most healthy fibres are insulated by myelin, a fatty substance which aids the flow of messages. In MS, the myelin breaks down or becomes scarred. This distorts or even blocks the flow of messages, resulting in the many symptoms of MS. Many people explain MS like a faulty electrical flex on a kettle. If the insulating flex breaks, it exposes the wires underneath making them more vulnerable to damage.

Did you know that over 7,000 people and families live with Multiple Sclerosis across Ireland. Multiple Sclerosis can affect Women, Men & Children of all ages.

Services & ResourcesMS Ireland provides a range of services and resources to the whole MS Community,- those with MS, family members, employers and Health Professionals.
