Giving a major gift

Making a real impact

Sometimes, all it takes is one person to set something powerful in motion.

With a major gift to Versus Arthritis, you can be that person.

From funding ground-breaking research in Manchester, to running specialised exercise classes in Gwersyllt, to supporting a young person at the point of diagnosis in Edinburgh, or building a virtual assistant in London, we are working versus arthritis, and we need your help.

Ways to give

• A single or one-off gift can do more than just help; it can transform.
• A regular donation between £500 and £5,000 per year brings you closer to the organisation.
• Give through shares for a more tax effective way to donate.
• Donate through your charitable trust or foundation by working closely with our Trusts Team

Donations of £5,000 or more

If you can make a major gift to Versus Arthritis, we’d love to hear from you.

Whether your passion is for medical research, campaigning, or support services and outreach, there is something for everyone. The scale of the problem we are facing is startling, so help us act now.

In return, we promise to provide:

• A bespoke relationship that ensures your donation is funding the area of our work that you are most passionate about;
• regular updates on our work and your specified area of interest from a dedicated Versus Arthritis contact;
• an inspiring events program, including visits to our research centres and bespoke dinners;
• opportunities to meet some of our leading scientists and senior charity staff;
• recognition for your generosity in our key communications, with the option of naming rights.

There are over 10 million people in the UK living with arthritis. That’s one in six, with over half of those living in pain every single day. This is unacceptable.

Together we can continue to develop breakthrough treatments, campaign relentlessly for arthritis to be seen as a priority, and support every person with arthritis who needs us.

If you’re a trustee, advisor or are associated with a charitable Trust or Foundation, we’d be delighted to hear from you. We will work with you to find a project that meets your objectives and interests, as well as keep you updated on the impact of your generosity.
