NRAS is the only patient-led charity in the UK specifically for people with rheumatoid arthritis, their families and carers. There is no known cure for this chronic, long-term disease.

My story

I work for NRAS and am pleased to be taking part in the Great North run this September. On a daily basis I talk to people on the phone who have to live with rheumatoid arthritis (RA), a very debilitating disease. NRAS is the only charity specifically geared to supporting those who have RA, their families and carers.

I am currently in training (about to start training!) Please support me by donating on my page.

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

So please dig deep and donate now.
