Imagine what it is like to be in the prime of your life and diagnosed with a disease that means you can do less as time goes on??

Many people think that arthritis is an old person's disease. Something, perhaps their grandparents just had to learn to live with. In fact, the average age of people newly diagnosed with arthritis is just 35 years old. At best, arthritis is debilitating. At worst, it's a killer. Intense, severe pain and joint swelling leads to immobility, fatigue and depression. The social isolation that results can devastate lives.

There is no cure for arthritis, but there is plenty we can do. Your support will make a real difference to the lives of people living with arthritis.Click here to see how the money you donate will make a real difference. You can also access our Donor Charter here.
