NRAS was proud to host the first Rheumatoid Arthritis Mela tailored for the South Asian community, which took place at Leicester Racecourse on the 13th October 2022.
The event had a great representation of healthcare professionals and specialists from the South Asian community who kindly gave their time to share their expertise on the day.
The feedback from those attending found the event incredibly beneficial for their needs.
As with many events that are the first of their kind there has been some great learning that NRAS will take away, which will allow the organisation to better understand how to deliver these types of events for the community in the future.
NRAS sends thanks to everyone that attended. Some great connections have been built and the Society is fortunate to have learnt a great deal on some of the specific challenges facing those living with RA in the South Asian community. This will all help NRAS to develop the work we are doing.
