Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, whether she plans to meet with representatives of Versus Arthritis.

Versus Arthritis representatives have been in regular contact with the Department, as part of our programme of engagement for the Major Conditions Strategy. Their representatives have been invited to events including a Secretary of State led roundtable. We will continue to work with a range of charities including Versus Arthritis as part of our engagement work on the strategy.
