Versus Arthritis is the UK’s largest charity dedicated to supporting people with arthritis. It was launched in September 2018, following the legal merger of the two leading arthritis charities in the UK, Arthritis Research UK and Arthritis Care in November 2017.

It says: “There are over 10 million people living with arthritis. That’s one in six, with over half of those living in pain every single day.

“The impact is huge as the condition slowly intrudes on everyday life – affecting the ability to work, care for a family, to move free from pain and to live independently. Yet arthritis is often dismissed as an inevitable part of ageing or shrugged off as ‘just a bit of arthritis’. We don’t think that this is OK. Versus Arthritis is here to change that.

“We’re a community providing support for people with arthritis across the UK. We support world-class research and breakthrough treatments.”

Versus Arthritis is hosting free help sessions for people living with arthritis. They are taking place at the Guildford Institute on June 18 and 25 and July 9.
