Please help us to keep our weekly podcast Inflammatory! going until end of July (we are taking a pause during August due to school holidays)
We urgently need to raise £2,000 to continue producing our weekly Inflammatory! podcast. Our charity exists to educate, raise awareness, and share the realities of life with inflammatory arthritis (IA). The podcast has already been proven to be a powerful tool in achieving this, not only for those living with IA, but also for the general public who often have little understanding of what daily life with IA is really like.
Inflammatory arthritis affects over 750,000 people of ALL ages in the UK. There is no cure, and if left untreated can cause irreversible damage to the joints and organs. Symptoms are often invisible and people always think osteoarthritis when you hear the word 'arthritis'. However inflammatory arthritis is a chronic fluctuating disease caused, reasons still unknown, by our immune systems attacking tissues/joints and organs.
Inflammatory! has already made so much difference to people's lives as they hear weekly from people that understand and get what they are going through:
I became so emotional listening to this. It’s 12 years since diagnosis and it’s like living in another world within the world. Thank you for shining a light on my world.
Great Podcasts I look forward to the next and thank you for spreading awareness of this horrid condition.
I listened to your podcasts in the car over the weekend and I cannot believe how much your stories resonate with me; to hear your attitudes towards your diagnosis’ is amazing, most people are doom and gloom and very negative but the positivity your shared it warming!
I love listening especially to know I’m not alone! When your low mood or in pain etc it’s very easy for your mind to play a part and feel no one else has experienced this.
The charity is run by volunteers and our main out going is our podcast. We wanted the podcast to professional, and compliant to the highest industry standards. This is why we proud to work with Boutique Broadcasting who have over 20 years of experience in the broadcasting industry, they help to ensure every episode is delivered to the highest standards of quality and compliance.
We are applying for grants/trusts/partnerships however this takes time.
Every donation will go directly towards this cause, and you will be making a difference to those living with inflammatory arthritis. A heartfelt thank you to everyone who supports us.
