NASS

We are the National Axial Spondyloarthritis Society (NASS). We transform the diagnosis and care of axial SpA. This year we are celebrating our 50th anniversary

[Dr Gurdeep S Dulay @gurdeep_dulay]

Great engagement at evening talk to local GP & physiotherapy colleagues about topics including

🔺axial SpA , spade tool/delay to diagnosis
🔺 FQAD
🔺 osteoporosis

[Arthur Reynolds @ReynoldsArthur]

Enough people in the UK live with Axial SpA to fill Wembley twice, but 90% of the public haven't heard of the condition.

This needs to change.

Thanks to @GBNEWS and @Nanaakua1 for having me on to talk about my fundraiser for @NASSexercise

This May I’m taking part in Walk Your AS Off for @NASSexercise to raise awareness about my condition 🧡

My health isn’t at its best, so I’m not setting a target.

Any donation or share would mean a lot. 🧡

It’s #WorldASDay tomorrow

AS patients like me wait an average of 8 years to get a diagnosis - risking irreversible damage to our spines.

This delay does more than harm our health. @NASSexercise have shown it causes a £3.1bn a year hit to the U.K economy as we work and earn less.

AS is more common than Parkinson’s and ME combined, but 9 in 10 people know nothing about it.

I’ve written for @Daily_Express on how reducing the delay to diagnosis will give thousands their lives back and help get Britain working again.

On #WorldASDay thank you to @BBCLondonNews for covering my story.

Sadly, it's nothing out of the ordinary. I've met people who've waited 30 years for an AS diagnosis.

That's why in September, I'm climbing 8 peaks in 8 days to raise money for @NASSexercise.

The more people who know about inflammatory arthritis, the less time patients will wait for the treatment they need.

Many know Charlie Robards’ Hitting AS for Six- it’s resonated with hundreds. Readers call it "eye-opening" and "properly relatable" about living with axial SpA. Charlie candidly balances a love of sport with chronic pain. All profits go to NASS: https://t.co/dmdj2vLivS #AxialSpA
