Learn more about us

Too many people accept the daily pain, fatigue and isolation that arthritis causes. Too many dismiss it as 'just a bit of arthritis'. But we don't accept it. We are constantly campaigning to challenge the misconceptions around arthritis and to ensure that arthritis is recognised as priority in the UK. From challenging and influencing Government to get the big decisions right, to working with people with arthritis and our supporters we are making real headway. Together we're stronger. With your time, energy and generosity, we'll continue to develop breakthrough treatments, campaign relentlessly for arthritis to be seen as a priority, challenge how people see arthritis and ensure that everyone has access to the best information, advice and support they need, whenever they need it.
