NEW event coming up in LEEDS.
You asked and we listened. In response to demand for a JAR event in this region, our wonderful volunteer Clare, has organised a session at Clip 'n Climb Leeds for children with JIA and their siblings on Sunday 12 July 2026
Booking is essential www.jarproject.org/event
Reflecting on #EULARCongress, it struck us just how lucky we are to have such an incredible team of volunteers.
As a very small lived-experience charity, everything we do is driven by need in the field of JIA. Truly humbling to be part of EULAR and 13,000 others globally working in rheumatology.
We'd like to say a HUGE well done to the Cumiskey family who have become one of our top fundraisers this year by raising over £3,000 with their Lake District Ultra Challenge inspired by their daughter Clara who was diagnosed with Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis at the age of three. #ThinkJIA #JIA
Diane van der Woude outlining environmental exposures and links to autoimmune disorders, explaining the different biological mechanisms involved. Most of this work has been done in adult-onset disorders, but provides a fascinating insight into the way our environment impacts disease #EULAR26
Wow that was quick! Just an hour after opening bookings for the Clip 'n Climb event in Leeds, the event is now fully booked.
We look forward to seeing those booked on the day and Clare will be in touch with all the details you need nearer the time.
Wait list available at www.jarproject.org/event
Starting soon... Victoria room 2 #eular2026 Our very own Katherine will be speaking about a very special project.

Giovanni Adami giving a fascinating summary about the link between air pollution and flares in rheumatic and autoimmune diseases at #EULAR26
"We'd never heard of Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis before... Lots of families go through months if not years looking for answers." Charlotte Cumiskey speaking on BBC Radio Newcastle. You can catch it at www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/... (1 hour and 22 minutes into Matt Bailey's breakfast show) #thinkJIA
Here is 8 year old Alfie receiving his Little Box of Hope from us. These support packs are available to those in the UK with a diagnosis of JIA. Please see our website for more information at www.jarproject.org/hope
And all this is made possible thanks to our donors and fundraisers.
