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.

Being still in the early stages of my inflammatory arthritis (psoriatic) diagnosis I want to turn what has been a very negative time to something a little more positive. 

Please donate if you can. Whilst I won't be running a marathon or anything of that calibre - I will try my very best to walk as many steps each day (which in itself is a challenge each day). Diolch :)

Thanks so much to everyone that has donated to such a worthy cause. Can't believe already over target. Am so grateful to you all!!
I've struggled today between the pain and with the increase of my treatment dosage. But I've managed 9,764 steps so far and my daily goal is 5,000 steps (which is a daily marathon for me in the current climate). Walking like a waddling penguin/duck currently but a few months ago I was struggling to walk at all or even have the strength to sit up so feeling pretty good :)
