What is the Arthritis Connect online community?

In the Arthritis Connect online community, you can tell it how it is.

So many people don’t understand what it’s like to live with a condition that can have such a huge but hidden impact on your life. But we do.

One place you can always find a friendly ear or an answer to a question is our online community.

We know it takes strength to live with arthritis and we’re here to help whether it’s a good day, or a bad one. 

How can the online community support me?

The online community is open to everyone.

Whether you’ve lived with arthritis for many years or you’ve just been diagnosed. Parents of children with arthritis, and partners, family or friends who want to find out more about their loved one’s condition. It’s a safe, supportive space for a chat with people in a similar situation to you.

It is comforting to know that you're not alone. The online community is packed full of stories, friendly advice and resources from others living with arthritis that can really help you feel part of a positive community.
