Why I'm walking to World Arthritis Day
I am raising money for Versus Arthritis by taking on Walk to World Arthritis Day.
As most know, I live with arthritis, rheumatoid, axial spondyloarthritis and ankylosing spondylitis.
Each day is a challenge. The pain, fatigue and many other symptoms are awful to live with. Especially as a younger person, there is a lot of stigma around arthritis being an “old persons” illness. So often, a lot of us can be medically dismissed or refused tests.
This is my own personal challenge to support the lives of others living with arthritis in the UK in the hope of money raised going toward new research, new treatments and more knowledge!
So each day. Whether in pain or not I am going to walk as much as I can, for 12 days to raise money!
Versus Arthritis won’t rest until everyone with arthritis has access to the treatments and support they need to live the life they choose, with real hope of a cure in the future.
Good luck 👍
