Story
Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page. Millions of people wake up with arthritis every morning and face the day in pain, without the support and recognition they deserve. Arthritis attacks what it means to live and people with arthritis are often left to manage alone.
On Sunday 26th September, the OrthTeam Centre will be taking on the Manchester 10k Run in aid of Versus Arthritis. The team consists of OrthTeam consultants, staff and some family members: Professor Chris Peach, Mr Bilal Barkatali, Mr Matt Ravenscroft (and son), Dr John Rogers, Miss Ladan Hajipour (and family), Dr Nick Fraser, Dr Jonathan Rajan, Sam Chapman, Melissa Bradley and Josh Barrow.
Lacing up their trainers for a very worthy cause, Arthritis Action is the only UK charity giving hands-on, practical help to improve the quality of life of people affected by arthritis.
The cause offers an integrated self-management approach, which looks at both the physical and mental health impact of arthritis.
Hoping to make a difference to the lives of those living with this inhibiting and painful condition, the OrthTeam Centre’s runners would be extremely grateful for any donations and pledges of support! Thank you in advance.
