We made it happen! Lauren Bennie Versus Arthritis said: "If the FM's announcement delivers what it promises, it'll be a reflection of the hard work & campaigning of Versus Arthritis, HCPs & people with #arthritis. This could be the start of meaningful change on waiting times.”


“What I don’t forget is what it used to be like before I had my hips replaced, which was unbearable pain.” Today’s #SNP23 announcement by First Minister could make a real difference for the 45,323 people waiting for #orthopaedic surgery, many in unbearable pain like Brenda.


I'm recruiting for a Volunteer Service and Support Trainer at Scotland Versus Arthritis. If you want to help support + train volunteers to deliver quality services + have experience of developing + delivering training programmes then this could be for you! versusarthritis.org/about-us/work-…
