Matt was still a teenager when ongoing foot pain began to disrupt his life.

After years of uncertainty and flare ups, he was diagnosed with gout at 18, alongside kidney disease.

Understanding his condition and learning how to self-manage it through diet, activity and support has made a lasting impact.

🌻 We’re proud to share that Arthritis Action has joined the Hidden Disabilities Sunflower.

Arthritis affects over 10 million people in the UK and for many, it is a non-visible disability.

You may have seen the Sunflower symbol out and about on lanyards, badges or cards.

It’s a globally recognised symbol that people can choose to wear to discreetly signal they may need a little extra patience, understanding or support.

By joining the Hidden Disabilities Sunflower we’re recognising the importance of making non-visible disabilities, including arthritis, better understood in everyday life.

At Arthritis Action, we’re pleased to stand alongside other organisations helping to create a more understanding and inclusive society.
