A MESSAgE fROM THE PRESIdENTToday 1.4 million people in NSW have some form of arthritis. About half of those people also have osteoporosis. Without radical change in prevention and treatment, those numbers are expected to nearly double by 2050.

As reported last year, the economic cost of arthritis is now estimated at $23 billion per annum. 24 per cent of absenteeism in the workplace is attributed to arthritis-related conditions. No wonder arthritis and musculoskeletal conditions were included as one of the Australian Government’s eight National Health Priorities.

During the year, our Board signed off on a new Strategic Vision and Plan for Arthritis NSW. Our Vision is for ‘A Community free from Arthritis’. Our Plan aims to cater for the escalating needs of the arthritis and osteoporosis community in NSW by expanding our education and health promotion services, increasing contributions to research, growing our community-based networks of support groups and branches and by embracing the digital age in the coming years through our website, Facebook and Twitter and webinars.

The Australian Government’s new National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) represents a major change to the health landscape, the detail and ramifications of which are still being assessed. Our initial assessment is that the NDIS appears to offer great opportunity for Arthritis NSW services. Arthritis NSW receives negligible government funding and must rely on its own resources and the generosity of members and benefactors. Our organisation needs to strengthen its financial position to provide for our community’s growing needs into the future. In 2013 we substantially reduced our operating loss. Further improvement to reach breakeven is essential if we are to maintain and increase our services and increase our contribution to research. To achieve this, we need the support of all our stakeholders.

Our fundraising area is making great strides in diversifying our income stream with Kidsflix, appeals, events and community fundraising. William’s Walk, now into its second year, was again a great success. We thank William’s parents, David and Lauren Harris, for their great vision and initiative, and trust that we can repay them with increasing success, and increasing support for Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis (JIA) and arthritis in general.

We thank Mr Wyatt Song for his fantastic effort in swimming the English Channel to raise funds for rheumatoid arthritis research. We would also like to thank Mr Dorset Sutton, who participated in the Cole Classic Ocean Swim in February, raising substantial funds for Arthritis NSW. We thank our support groups and branches and regular givers in funding our annual research grant.

During the year, a campaign for an ideal JIA model of care was successfully launched with the assistance of Dr. Davinder Singh-Grewal. We will continue advocating for the adoption of this model by Government to provide first-class medical treatment for children with JIA.

Your Board extends its thanks to Chief Executive Officer, Karen Filocamo and the staff of Arthritis NSW for their dedication and commitment. Karen, who stepped down in July after five successful years, led Arthritis NSW through a period of great change to emerge as a more efficient and effective operation. Ably supported by Di Spragg, leading the Health Promotion Team, and Rob Novotny, leading Marketing and Fundraising, Arthritis NSW has a capable and hardworking team to take us forward.

I would also take this opportunity to thank all the Directors of Arthritis NSW, all dedicated volunteers like so many of the supporters of our cause. In particular, we pay tribute to retiring directors Ben Marosszeky AM and Diana Aspinall, who have contributed so much over many years. Both retired at the end of 2012, Ben after more than 30 years on the Board and Education Committee, Diana after many years service to both Arthritis NSW and Arthritis Australia.

We were delighted to receive the news that Ben’s great efforts were acknowledged in the New Year’s Order of Australia Honours list with an AM, closely followed mid-year by the award of an OAM to rheumatologist Dr. Siri Kannangara, and to 40 year volunteer Mrs Enid Monaghan. We also acknowledge the tireless efforts of so many volunteers in our committees, support group and branch networks, and throughout NSW. Finally, we extend a warm welcome to new Chief Executive Officer Annette (Nettie) Burke who commenced on 1st July 2013. Nettie has great experience in both commercial and ‘not-for-profit’ organisations and we look forward to this exciting next phase of Arthritis NSW in our quest for ‘A Community free from Arthritis’.

Community SeminarsDuring 2012/2013 there were five community seminars. These were held at Albury, Castle Hill, Coffs Harbour, Lithgow and Young. Attendance at the seminars ranged from 55 to 120. Total attendance was 384 with an average attendance of 77 people.

Thanks are extended to all support groups and branches that held and assisted with seminars. The Health Promotion Team would also like to acknowledge the generous support of the rheumatologists, orthopaedic surgeons and allied health professionals who gave their time to present. Without their support these important community events would not be possible.

Community Education SessionsThe team added to their repertoire of education sessions during the year by developing a new shoulder pain session. This brings the total to seven sessions available to the community. In 2012/2013 the team delivered a total of 66 sessions to a total of 1,267 people. Average attendance was 19 people per session.

Community webinarsWebinars offer an alternative to face-to-face meetings and are now an integral part of our health promotion services. Four community webinars were conducted during the year. Topics covered were Osteoporosis and Back Pain, presented by physiotherapist Sally Castell; Shoulder Pain, presented by physiotherapist Judy Chen; Fibromyalgia, presented by rheumatologist Dr. Maxine Szramka; and Arthritis and Exercise, presented by physiotherapist Anna-Louise Bouvier. There were a total of 144 registrations for the webinars with an average of 36 participants per session.

Arthritis Awareness weekArthritis Awareness Week 2013 was held from 17th to the 23rd March. The focus of the team’s work during this week was to raise awareness by holding information stands in pharmacies at St Clair, Liverpool and Holroyd.

Information ServiceThe team increased the service from one day per week in the 2011/2012 financial year to two days per week this year. The service dealt with 676 inquiries during the year which represents a 3 per cent increase compared to the 2011/2012 financial year.

AN OvERvIEw Of ACTIvITES 2012/13

Camp TwinkletoesCamp Twinkletoes is an annual camp for children under eight years of age with JIA and their families. The 2013 camp was held from 1st to the 3rd February at ‘The Tops’ Convention Centre, Stanwell Tops. The camp was attended by 16 families (60 people), which represents a 23 per cent increase on the numbers who attended in 2012. Of these families, nine were attending for the first time. The camp was supported by four volunteers, who are thanked for their time, and four Arthritis NSW staff. Dr. Chaitow, paediatric rheumatologist, is also thanked for his generosity in giving his time to conduct a parents’ workshop at the camp.

Camp footlooseCamp Footloose is a week-long camp held for children eight to 18 years of age with JIA. The 2012 camp was held from 24th to the 28th September at the Milson Island Sport and Recreation site on the Hawkesbury River. 34 children attended camp, of these 15 (44 per cent) were attending for the first time. Thanks are extended to the 12 volunteers who generously gave a week of their time to attend camp, and to Linda Nash who attended as the camp nurse. The camp was also supported by two Arthritis NSW staff and two Department of Sport and Recreation staff.

Health Professional EventsA health professional’s clinical update day, ‘Think Arthritis and Osteoporosis’, was conducted at the Kolling Institute, Royal North Shore Hospital on Saturday 16th March. The day was attended by 75 health professionals who evaluated the educational program very highly. Thanks go to the rheumatologists, orthopaedic surgeons and allied health professionals who presented on the day and made it such a success.

A health professional webinar on arthritis, presented by orthopaedic surgeon Dr. Sol Qurashi was also conducted in December 2012.

2012/2013 ANNUAL REPORT HEALTH PROMOTION TEAM ACTIvITIES


Rural Education Outreach ProjectThe health promotion team commenced a new project in June which aims at increasing community and health professional education about arthritis in rural areas. The project will run until December 2013 and is being piloted in the New England area. Education sessions are being conducted in Armidale, Inverell, Moree, Narrabri and Tamworth.

A SUPPORT gROUP ANd ROBUST NETwORK THROUgHOUT NSw2012/2013 SUPPORT gROUPS ANd BRANCHES

Arthritis NSW has a thriving support group/branch network of 45 groups across the state.

Over the course of the year new support groups in Armidale, Castle Hill, Kogarah and Tamworth have commenced. In addition a number of branches have transitioned into a less formal support group structure. As a result there are currently 26 (58 per cent) support groups and 19 (42 per cent) branches.

Unfortunately the year also saw the closure of the Chinese support group and Turramurra branch.

In 2012 Honorary Life Membership Awards were presented to:

• Beryl Evans Long Jetty Support Group

• Jennie Fisher Southern Highlands Branch

• Joy Forge Penrith Branch

• Inge Husz Albury-Wodonga Support Group

• Michelle Kirchner Holroyd Branch

• Linda Nash Long Jetty Support Group

• Betty Wood Parramatta Support Group Congratulations and thanks go to these dedicated members who have worked diligently to support Arthritis NSW over many years.

This year regional meetings were held in Albury, Barrack Heights (Warilla-Shellharbour), Bathurst, East Maitland, South Grafton, Taree, West Ryde (City Regional) and Woy Woy.A total of 242 members attended these meetings representing 30 (65 per cent) of all branches and support groups.

These meetings continue to be a valuable opportunity for Arthritis NSW staff and members to interact and discuss relevant issues. An informative and well received shoulder pain education session was part of this year’s meeting format.

Warm water exercise continues to be a significant part of support group/branch activity and a valuable benefit for members. Currently 33 per cent of support groups and branches conduct warm water exercise classes. Thanks go to the over 60 volunteer leaders across the state who make these classes possible.

This year funding was received from Wenty Leagues Club, via the ClubsGrants scheme, to commence classes at Holroyd.


The Arthritis NSW Board in its strategic plan for the next five years has placed an important emphasis and priority on promoting and supporting research for the betterment of people with arthritis. As a specialist organisation we have a commitment to advance the special needs of our members. Although there are many millions of dollars available in national government funds (NHMRC, ARC) for use in research, the demand and need for such money nationally is also high and competitive and at the end of the year very little is available for arthritis research. Most of the money is given to other areas of need such as cancer and cardiovascular research. All the money that is donated and raised by Arthritis NSW for research is directed and spent on research.

The Board has established an Arthritis Research Committee consisting of the CEO, Associate Prof. Tanya Meade (Psychologist, UWS), Dr. Justin McNab (Epidemiologist, Sydney University), Prof. Kevin Pile (Rheumatologist, UWS), Matthew Jennings (Allied Health Director, Physiotherapist, Liverpool Hospital) and Prof. Nicholas Manolios (Rheumatologist, Westmead Hospital).

The aim of this committee is to provide a comprehensive approach to issues associated with arthritis and to promote both quantitative and qualitative research. The Board has agreed to establish a research trust account that will provide ongoing grants from the interest earned on the capital.

In the last financial year $15,000 of the support groups and branches money raised was given to Arthritis Australia to support their research program. These funds were awarded to Dr. Sanaa Zaki from the Kolling Institute of Medical Research, Royal North Shore Hospital, at Sydney University for her study entitled ‘Investigating the Pain Mechanisms of Osteoarthritis’.

In June 2013 the committee offered two ‘Grant in Aid’ research grants. One was specifically for rheumatoid arthritis, using funds raised by Wyatt Song from his English Channel swim. The second was from funds raised by support groups and branches and the Joint Initiative Regular Giving Program and was for a general arthritis project. These grants were awarded to Dr. Daina Sturnieks and Dr. Mark Hancock respectively.

ANNUAL RESEARCH REPORT

The committee, which reports to the Board, plays an important role in maintaining a research profile and progress can be tracked on the website and in Arthritis Matters. This allows members to keep up-to-date with developments and directions of research by Arthritis NSW.
