Local Support

I had a quick look at what support is available in my area and found nothing at all within my own or the nearest county. Is this a commom experience for people?
My local counties are Hererfordshire, Worcestershire And Gloucestershire.

Hi again AmandaW,
I had a look and it might be the nearest could be Cheltenham though of course you gave a wide area
Here’s the link to the web page you need, just enter your post code in the search box.
https://www.arthritiscare.org.uk/our-services-and-support/branches-and-groups/near:51.8642449;-2.238156;Gloucester
Of course travel can be tricky, if there isn’t one nearby it might be worth chatting to the helpline team to see if there is anything else nearby, or what sort of things to search for.
Take care

Hi Amanda
Thought I would let you know that I too have looked for local support but there does not seem to be a group, I am in south Hampshire. I would love to have a group locally to talk to about my RA and share experiences. I guess we might need to start groups!0 -
Hi KTBee
It looks like your nearest support group is Worthing...
You both might find this page helpful:

Hi Everyone,
I am in Liverpool and my nearest group is Chester (I think) which is about 15 to 20 miles away from me. I've had this horrible. painful, debilitating arthritis for so long now. It would be great to find a local group.0
