In memory of Anne Frances Hilley who passed on 8 April 2026 who suffered for the last almost 30 years with RA.

It has been 25 years since NRAS Founder, Ailsa Bosworth MBE, launched NRAS. After feeling frustrated with the lack of information and support she had received since her diagnosis with RA, Ailsa knew there were many more people out there who needed help.

NRAS will be celebrating their 25th anniversary in October 2026 and now provide a lifeline for the 450,000 people with RA and the 10,000 children and young people living with juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) across the UK. Both RA and JIA are devastating, lifelong autoimmune conditions, currently with no cure.

Please donate whatever you can to in memory of Anne Frances and help continue to change the lives of all those with RA and JIA in the UK.
