Help us get nearer to a future free from arthritis.

Your generosity will bring us one step closer to a pain free future – where everyone with arthritis has access to the personalised treatments and support, they need to live a life free from chronic pain.

218 research projects are supported by your donations – across 53 different research organisations, looking at primary care, fatigue, clinical trials as well as pain research, the APDP being one example of this. The APDP brings together 93 research teams, at 23 universities across the UK, including experts from biological, psychosocial and cognitive pain research fields. Our research is all about collaboration, sharing ideas, pushing discoveries forward – and most importantly, working together with people with arthritis to understand their pain. 

With your support, we’ll continue to invest in world-class research, provide high-quality services and campaign on the issues that matter most to people with arthritis.

£27 could help fund the use of a cutting-edge microscope for an hour, so researchers can study the root cause of arthritis pain. 

£6 a month for two years pay for two months’ worth of necessary lab supplies, so researchers can study the biological markers of arthritis pain.

£12 a month for two years could help fund a person with lived experience of arthritis to inform research into the causes of chronic pain.

£20 a month for two years could help pay for a year’s worth of data storage, to support research into the potentially life-changing study of childhood arthritis pain.

There’s still time to help us and support arthritis research with a donation today. The Advanced Pain Discovery Platform (APDP) brings together experts from many areas of pain research. Together, we’ll keep working hard to transform our knowledge of the underlying causes of chronic pain, accelerating the development of treatments from ideas to real, life-changing benefit.  Arthritis affects around 10 million of us in this country, your support can be the comfort and empathy someone with arthritis desperately needs.
