You’re invited!

Join us for a friendly and relaxed online workshop exploring what it means to live well with inflammatory arthritis.

Living with a long-term condition can bring challenges, from managing symptoms and treatment to finding the right information, support and services. We want to create a space where patients, families, carers and anyone interested can come together, learn from others and share their experiences.

The workshop will explore conditions including lupus, vasculitis, psoriatic arthritis, or rheumatoid arthritis and ankylosing spondylitis, and will look at the support available both locally and nationally.

You’ll hear from Anu Desai, Rheumatology Consultant at the Trust, and Debbie Wilson from Inflammatory Arthritis UK, who will share their knowledge and insights into the support, resources and opportunities available.

We will also tell you about current research and opportunities and how you can get involved

Most importantly, we want to hear from you. What are the challenges and barriers you face? What support would make a difference? And what could help people living with inflammatory arthritis to feel more informed, supported and able to live well?

📅 Tuesday 29 September
🕠 5.30pm–7.00pm
💻 Online via Microsoft Teams

The session will be informal, welcoming and open to everyone. Whether you live with inflammatory arthritis yourself, support someone who does, or simply want to learn more, we’d love you to join us and be part of the conversation.
