Support team ‘Keep S'myelin’ as they drive the exciting Bangers to Bluff Rally 2026 to raise awareness of the impact of multiple sclerosis.

More than 5000 Kiwis live with multiple sclerosis (MS) - a lifelong neurological condition that affects each person differently. Some symptoms are hidden, such as changes in vision or sensation, while others are more visable, like difficulties with balance and mobility. Early treatment can protect brain health and slow progression.

Living well with MS is possible, but time matters.

Join us in supporting team 'Keep S'myelin' as they take on the thrilling Bangers to Bluff rally 2026 raising awareness about the impact of MS and driving hope for those affected.

The difference YOU could make

Approximately 5,000 people are diagnosed with MS in New Zealand. Your donation will support us to:

- address inequities in access to services, health and wellbeing.
- advocate for the needs of those diagnosed, as well as their carers and families, breaking down barriers that impact physical, mental and financial health and well-being.

- provide nationally consistent information and support for 18 regional member organisations providing services in their local community.

MSNZ has been a grateful participant of the rally since 2018, with 2021 being the first year we entered our own banger.

The delightful goodwill and advocacy opportunities experienced along the way, always exceeds our expectations.

In 2025, this event raised $72,000 for MSNZ and Regional MS Societies.

Our 2026 banger desperately needs your support to make its way across the country, spreading awareness about MS and raising vital funds needed to help people to live well.

Graham's Challenge

When team member Graham, an ex-competitive cyclist, was diagnosed with Primary Progressive MS, he was told to 'use it or lose it'.

"So, it really was a no-brainer, neurological condition and all, to pursue cycling as my exercise vehicle.”

Donate to support Graham as he cycles ahead of the rally each morning, cycling as far as he can before they catch him!

Last year he averaged 20km a day!
