Today is Random Acts of Kindness Day so to spread some joy we visited Arthritis Action and made them some bubble teas, with their fantastic team. At TeaJoy ae wanted to spread some joy and kindness on this important day.
Arthritis Action is a UK charity giving hands-on, practical help to improve the quality of life of people affected by arthritis. We offer an integrated self-management approach, which looks at both the physical and mental health impact of living with arthritis. We support people living with musculoskeletal conditions through healthy eating advice, mental health resources, pain management techniques, Online Groups, employment support, and exercise advice and resources.
We also offer one-to-one nutritional consultations; access to clinical appointments with our network of osteopaths, physiotherapists, and acupuncturists; and a personalised pathway for goal setting, through our Membership, to help people take control of their arthritis and enjoy life to the fullest.
In the UK, approximately 10 million individuals are affected by arthritis in some form. The term "arthritis" refers to inflammation in the joints, which is a challenging sensation to grasp, but it's a natural part of the body's healing process, akin to recovering from a cut or bruise. This inflammation can be likened to a bruise with swelling inside the joints, leading to discomfort and stiffness.
"Charities like Arthritis Action play a crucial role in breaking the loneliness of arthritis. As someone who has psoriatic arthritis, I'm grateful to have received support from various charities. Arthritis can be very deliberating, causing you pain and stiffness. It massively changes your life and robs you of the things you used to love and do. Charities services provide vital services to connect you with services and others with the condition to connect. Thank you Arthritis Action for all your work."
