CHILDREN'S CHRONIC
ARTHRITIS ASSOCIATIONAbout one in a thousand children suffer from Juvenile Chronic Arthritis
(JCA) which can strike at any age and take one of several forms. The Childrens
Chronic Arthritis Association is run by both parents and professionals and is
open to all who are concerned with the welfare of children with arthritis. It
is a registered charity and provides the following. - A support network for children with arthritis and their families.
- Practical help and support through their network and Area Family Contacts.
- Educational and recreational opportunities for arthritic children and their
families.
The Area Family Contacts, as parents of arthritic children themselves, fully
understand and appreciate the day-to-day living with JCA and by support and
encouragement hope to help overcome the feelings of isolation, loneliness, and
frustration which can affect the whole family. Contact the above address for
membership details. Membership is free but donations are welcome.
