I’ve never blogged in my life so here goes.
these first 10 workshops if successful will be replicated next year in other parts of the country so watch this space!
the workshops will run in the evenings so as to ensure people working can get to them without taking time off work.
6.30pm – 9pm.
First one tomorrow Regents College Conference centre. Call me on 0845 458 3969 for more information.

If it’s a good course, run well, then it could be fantastically useful! I just wish that 1. it covered self-employment (perhaps it does!) and 2. It covered the part of the country I live in. But good on them for giving this a try – I hope it works. I think it’s important to do one for just RA too because the problems are very different from those of OA sufferers. Hurrah for NRAS! Sorry you can’t get something similar at the moment over there – maybe you should suggest it to the Arthritis Foundation?

Darned cold here too but managing to stay reasonably warm …although could be feeling better!

I probably won’t make it!!

Some of the people who attend them might find their lives changed for the better, you know? I ‘ve never heard of such a workshop here, even though the Arthritis Foundation is huge and active all over the country. Maybe they’ll take a hint from the NRAS. I can hope.

I also hope you’re feeling good and staying nice and warm. It sure has been a frigid, icy winter over there …
