Appeal on behalf of the British Rheumatic Association, by Denis Compton
Contributions will be gratefully acknowledged and should be addressed to [address removed]
Founded soon after the war with the help of Lord Nuffield and the late Lord Horder, the British Rheumatic Association exists to promote the welfare of sufferers from rheumatism and arthritis, diseases which take a heavy toll of both human happiness and productive activity. This it seeks to do, not only by securing better and more wide-spread facilities for up-to-date diagnosis and treatment, but also, perhaps more importantly, by helping individual sufferers to overcome their disabilities.
The Association has no endowment nor any grant of public money, and is wholly dependent on voluntary contributions for the continuance of its beneficent work
