Since 1976 NASS has been here to help
We have the information you need, along with a community of people who understand.
NASS Helpline
I can honestly say that being able to contact you just by picking up the phone gives me great peace of mind.
Garry, Sally and Zoë are available to chat Monday to Friday between 10am and 4pm. Do call us on 020 8741 1515.
You can also email us at asknass@nass.co.uk with any questions and we will aim to get back to you as soon as possible. Usually that’s within one working day but at very busy times it can take us a little longer.
Our helpline can assist with many different topics, from questions about your medication, to queries about living with axial SpA (AS), and even help with PIP and benefits claims. For further information on how we can assist with benefits specifically click here.
NASS social media
Simply the best place and people to go to for help and support for all their AS needs.
We are on Facebook and are always happy to answer questions through direct messages or to share your questions with others if you want to understand other peoples experiences. We have more than 24,000 followers so there’s a good chance that someone will understand what you’re going through and have a great suggestion.
We also run Facebook Live sessions twice a month. There’s a host of guest speakers covering a wide range of different topics. If you tune in live you can ask questions in the comments and we will try to ensure your questions get answered. The recordings stay on our Facebook page or you can watch them on our YouTube page.
If you prefer Twitter you’ll find us at @NASSexercise where we have over 7,000 followers. Lots are physiotherapists and they are always happy to make a few suggestions if you need some help.
We’re also on Instagram @NASS_exercise, so please do join our community of over 3000 people.
