In this section you can find out about the experience of being a young person with arthritis, by listening to people share their personal stories on film. Our researchers talked to 40 young people and 10 parents in their own homes. Find out what people said about issues such as diagnosis, treatments, school and social life. We hope you find the information helpful and reassuring. This project was funded by Arthritis Research UK.
