Why I'm walking to World Arthritis Day

I am raising money for Versus Arthritis by taking on Walk to World Arthritis Day.

This is my own personal challenge to support the lives of those living with arthritis in the UK. 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.

Your donations will fund world class research, high quality services and campaigns that matter most to people with arthritis.

Not a stroll in the park

Wednesday 13th Sep

Being diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis is one of the biggest struggles I have ever had to face. Two months after first showing symptoms, I lost mobility in my whole body that even putting on a bra or socks was an unachievable task. Now two years later, and after many hospital visits, I’m back on my feet and able to walk, jog, and dance again.

Within the last two years, I’ve realised that the world is not built and not kind to those with disabilities. Being part of a very unforgiving industry did not help and I faced discrimination even after working far more hours than someone in my condition should be. As well as personal/family relationships not understanding the care and help needed to support someone who has this condition.

So here I am now doing 10,000 a day (something I couldn’t do two years ago) to try and raise awareness on rheumatoid arthritis.
