What We do at Kids Like Us
Kids Like Us is a local charity supporting young people and families living with juvenile arthritis in the West Midlands.
​
There are currently around 1200 young people who live with from arthritis in the area. The cause of the disease is not clear and as of yet there is no cure, which is why we also support work that is looking for answers.
​
Very few people realise that arthritis affects people of all ages. We try to raise awareness so that noone feels like they are on their own.
