NRAS groups and other local patient support
Many people find
meeting others living with RA from their own localities to be of great
benefit. NRAS groups are a great source of ongoing information and
education. How else will you know about local services available to
you? Wouldn’t it be nice to meet some of your rheumatology health
professionals in non-clinical setting? How would it feel to be able to
influence future rheumatology service provision by being part of a
strong patient voice in your area? NRAS groups aim to encourage better
disease self management via informative guest speakers as well as
offering opportunities to widen your social circle and activities.
As
well as NRAS patient groups there are many other RA Groups that are run
independently which NRAS are aware of but cannot account for their
meetings’ contents etc.
All groups are listed within region,
please click on the region you live in to find your nearest group - if
