Providing education programmes, information, funding research on the treatment and management of arthritis, providing informative brochures on all the main forms of arthritis and a quarterly magazine, lobbying government and supporting people with arthritis across New Zealand through our 24 Service Centres, Regional Offices and National Office. We also organise support groups and specific seminars for people to attend.
In the last year we reached and assisted over 55,000 clients. We have contracts with nine DHBs who recognise the services we provide in the community. An important milestone was the appointment of our first Maori Arthritis Educator in South Auckland. We are constantly developing new and updated exercise resources and brochures, translated in Hindi and Mandarin.
