No one should feel locked out of life because of axial SpA. Yet each year, thousands of people are left in pain while they wait for answers, with their hopes and dreams for the future on hold.
At NASS, we are here to listen and to understand. Our services are for everyone affected by axial SpA, and we can offer a friendly ear and support when you need it most.
But we can only do so with your support. We need your help to make sure that everyone with axial SpA has somewhere to turn to when they need us.
Please help decorate our ChristNASS tree with a donation of your choice today.
We face a challenging winter together, but with your help, we can ensure that everyone has support when they need it.
Help us decorate the ChristNASS tree, and help power our support services this winter

NASS is the only charity in the UK dedicated to transforming the diagnosis, treatment and care of axial Spondyloarthritis (axial SpA), a painful and progressive inflammatory disease of the spine and joints which affects 1 in 200 people in the UK.
Inflammation, where muscles attach to the bones, cause extreme pain, exhaustion and limited movement. Axial SpA is an invisible and often misdiagnosed condition, and on average, it takes over eight years to receive a diagnosis. If left untreated and if symptoms are not managed, axial SpA can permanently fuse the bones.
