Big Fun Run London (Victoria Park) 2011 · 2 October 2011 ·

NASS is only charity in the UK dedicated to supporting people with axial spondyloarthritis (AS), a painful, progressive rheumatic disease which mainly affects the spine. An estimated 200,000 people live with AS in the UK. Our 90+ branches across the UK offer regular exercise to anyone with AS.

Story

In the beginning of 2007 I began to suffer with back pain and Sacroiliac Joint pain. This is often treatable and curable. However occasionally this is not always the case and just the start of something more serious. Unfortunately the latter was true for me, and in April 2010 I was finally diagnosed with Ankylosing Spondylitis (AS). This is a type of Inflammatory Arthritis which is a chronic and life changing condition. Like most sufferers I often battle through the day trying to manage my pain and symptoms.

Ankylosing Spondylitis like all chronic conditions becomes your life, but this doesn't mean you life has to become your condition. 

Please give what you can to help raise awareness of our condition, and fund developements in treatments so more sufferers can lead more active lives, and enjoy it as much as I do.

You can learn more about Ankylosing Spondylitis and follow my training on my blog www.endlesstrax.wordpress.com.

Thank you for your support.
