Your generosity means so much

On behalf of The Arthritis Movement team and our community, I would like to thank you for your kindness, which makes such an incredible difference every day to people who live with arthritis.

Your impact has ranged from helping others to use the front steps to their own home again, to working on their property while pain-free, and gaining the confidence to walk without risking a fall. There are more stories in the enclosed donor magazine about people whose lives you have positively influenced. Families with children living with arthritis across Queensland and NSW are now able to look forward to our children’s camps program, one of many services supported thanks to your generous gifts to the Tax Appeal.

I would also like to take a moment to thank our outgoing CEO, Alex Green, for transforming our organisation into a cohesive and efficient provider of information and support. His leadership has extended our reach both geographically and digitally, and we wish him all the best in his future endeavors.

Looking to the future, we are excited to announce the launch of a virtual fundraiser, March for Arthritis, which will take place in early 2026. This event aims to raise funds for vital services such as our online exercise programs. These programs are crucial in helping individuals stay active and engaged in their daily lives, empowering them to manage their arthritis and maintain their independence. With projections indicating that 59,000 people aged 15-54 may stop working due to arthritis by 2030, your support is more important than ever.

Thank you for bringing hope and changing lives. The changes—whether big or small—mean so much to our community.
