Organisation Summary

The Arthritis Movement is committed to improving the lives of those affected by arthritis through innovative care, strong community support, and dedicated advocacy.

Our Mission & Vision:
The Arthritis Movement strives to help individuals live life to the fullest by providing education, resources, and programs that enhance self-management. We support research and innovation to prevent, treat, and ultimately cure arthritis, working toward a future free from the disease.

Our Approach:
– Striding Forward: We lead with advanced health services and research-driven solutions that empower people to manage their arthritis effectively.
– Stronger Together: Collaboration is key—we bring together communities, healthcare professionals, and supporters to ensure no one faces arthritis alone.
– Active Advocacy: We push for improved care, funding, and awareness to create a better future for those affected.

Our Key Focus Areas:
We prioritise disease prevention, condition management, support services, and research aimed at improving quality of life. Our values—collaboration, sustainability, innovation, and outcome-focused strategies—guide our work.

Who We Help & How:
We provide support to anyone affected by arthritis, from the newly diagnosed to long-term sufferers. Through specialised education programs and health services focusing on lifestyle, nutrition, and gentle exercise, we help people maintain joint function, reduce pain, and improve their quality of life.

Key services include: Community Education, Online Services, Peer Mentoring, Arthritis Youth Camps and much more…
