I am walking the Camino de Santiago, which is an 950km pilgrimage, to raise money for Arthritis NZ.
Nationwide
The aim of this walk is to raise funds and awareness for Arthritis New Zealand. It is also a huge personal challenge for me.
We improve the lives of people affected by arthritis (including lupus, gout, and fibromyalgia) through providing support that helps people with arthritis navigate the health system and live well with arthritis. We also provide resources and education to caregivers, whānau, and healthcare professionals to help people with arthritis.
Our advocacy work and the research we fund both aim to improve healthcare systems and get better outcomes for people with arthritis - young and old!
Arthritis is one of the leading causes of disability in New Zealand, with more than 750,000 people living with arthritis, including children and young adults.
