Scientists in Sheffield are getting £40,000 to investigate whether robotic suits, similar to the one pictured above, could help those with MS get more exercise.

The MS Society is funding the research, which will be carried out at the Royal Hallamshire Hospital.

Dr Siva Nair, who is running the research, said: “A lack of exercise can cause heart disease, stroke, diabetes, obesity and depression, so we need to find a way to make it easier for people with advanced MS to take part in physical activity.

"Robotics is the natural step forward. By embracing this technology, we are giving people who can’t walk the chance to exercise like everyone else."
