About usWe are committed to increasing the diversity of our charity and we welcome candidates from a wide variety of backgrounds and experiences. We want our employees, volunteers, trustees and involved people to represent the broad diversity of the communities of which we are a part.Over 10 million adults, young people and children in the UK live with arthritis. Thats one in six of us living with the pain, fatigue, disability, mental and financial strain it can cause. Many more live with arthritis but remain undiagnosed, untreated and unsupported.We know the impact of arthritis can be huge, affecting the ability to work, care for family, move free from pain and live independently. Yet for a condition affecting so many, its poorly understood and far too little is done. Thats why we invest in life-changing research into better treatments, support people through the daily challenges of life with arthritis, and campaign on the issues that matter most to people living with it.At Arthritis UK, we wont rest until everyone with arthritis has access to the treatments and support they need to live the life they choose, with real hope of a cure in the future.Arthritis UK is committed to keeping children, young people and vulnerable adults safe from harm. During the recruitment process we will undertake safer recruitment practices and relevant checks to ensure applicants are suitable to work with children, young people and vulnerable adults.Read more about volunteering for us.
