Charity

NRAS - The National Rheumatoid Arthritis Society (NRAS) supports people affected by rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and their families, friends and carers. RA can strike at any age causing joint swelling and stiffness and extreme pain and fatigue. Around 700,000 people are affected with around 12,000 children suffering from the juvenile form of the disease. There is presently no cure and approximately 26,000 new cases are diagnosed each year. We give support through our freephone Helpline, a nationwide Volunteer Network with one to one telephone support, a wide range of publications and leaflets on all aspects of living with the disease, and our informative website. We also campaign to raise awareness of the disease and ensure fair treatment and best use of resources for all those with RA.

Hi, thanks for visiting our page. Sophie and I are taking part in the London 2010 Bupa 10,000kms to raise money for the National Rheumatoid Arthritis Society. Rheumatoid arthritis is a painful, chronic auto-immune disease causing inflammation, swelling and fatigue. It is very different from osteoarthritis, please see the very informative NRAS website if you would like to learn more. 

Through Virgin Money Giving, you can sponsor us and donations will be quickly processed and passed to the NRAS charity which provides advice, information and support to people affected by rheumatoid arthritis, as well as raising awareness and campaigning for better services and treatments.  Virgin Money Giving is a not for profit organisation and will claim gift aid on a charity's behalf where the donor is eligible for this. We really appreciate all your support and thank you for any donations.
