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.

Arthritis Management Needs More Support

Wednesday 28th Aug
Arthritis sufferers aren't given enough support from our health services. My experience is being given painkillers and sent away to carry on with your life.  Painkillers aren't always the answer and don't always work. People need more support to find other ways of coping with the pain and the stiffness. That will be a very different journey for everyone. VA give that support to those who feel abandoned. The majority of us will suffer from OA or RA ar some age to differing degrees. We know it comes to many with age. But let's support everyone and give them coping strategies and the friendship support they need and deserve. Thank you if you are able to sponsor me. I'm truly thankful that you could regardless of the size of the donation. If you can't sponsor just help the next person you know has arthritis or a joint problem. Even if it's putting a hand out to help them up a step. Thank you so much. 👍👍
