Inclusive activities and community connections
The following organisations are members of the Moore Than Arthritis Free Active Community Network. They offer inclusive activities and community connections in the Hull area.

City of Hull Boxing Club
City of Hull Boxing Club provides inclusive boxing and fitness activities for people of all abilities. Their sessions are designed to be accessible and welcoming to the wider community.

Braver Steps provides private, independent occupational therapy for adults whose physical or cognitive difficulties affect daily activities or employment. Covering Hull, East Riding of Yorkshire and North Lincolnshire, Victoria Ryan offers person-centred assessments, interventions, equipment advice and vocational rehabilitation support. Visits take place at home or work as required. Standard charges apply, with a free initial telephone or email consultation. Self-referrals are welcome.
Rehab & Recover Ltd
Rehab and Recover is your dedicated and trusted provider of fully tailored sports exercise medicine, physiotherapy, sports massage, recovery and women's health services. Based in Hull and Brough, and working with a wide range of clients from across East Yorkshire, our team of musculoskeletal specialists is here to support anyone in need of first-rate physiotherapy and rehabilitation plans.
We are urgently looking for people to run local support groups
We are actively developing a network of arthritis support groups across Hull and East Yorkshire. These groups will be added to our community as soon as they are established in your area. If you have lived experience of arthritis or a musculoskeletal condition and would like to help lead a local support group, we would love to hear from you — no formal qualifications are needed, just a willingness to support others.
Please contact the activity provider directly to confirm current sessions, accessibility arrangements, availability and suitability for your individual needs. Not every activity listed will be clinically suitable for everyone.
Help shape future local support
We are listening to people across Hull and East Yorkshire to understand where additional arthritis support, inclusive activity and community connection may be needed. Registering your interest does not commit you to attending or running a group, but it helps us understand local demand.
