Share your story

Why sharing stories matters

If you are happy to share your story with us, we would love to hear from you.

We use stories in the media, on our social channels, in our health information and for campaigning purposes to help us raise awareness with Governments and healthcare practictioners.

The personal stories and experiences that you share with us can help us raise awareness of living with arthritis. They also help others affected by arthritis to know that they are not alone. 

We’ve spoken to many different people who have shared their experiences with us. Below are just some of the amazing real-life stories and inspirational people we’ve met.
