In this programme we look at ankylosing spondylitis (AS), a form of arthritis affecting the spine. Paul Evans speaks to Iain MacDonald and Tom Downie of the Edinburgh branch of the National Ankylosing Spondylitis Society, about their role in supporting people with the condition. Paul also talks to Janice Johnson of PSALV (Psoriasis Scotland Arthritis Link Volunteers) about psoriasis.

We also interview speakers from the Annual Scientific Meeting of the British Pain Society. Pain Concern’s Sue Clayton gives a patient perspective to healthcare professionals, while Emma Briggs of the British Pain Society’s Pain Education Special Interest Group explains the importance of improving the pain education of healthcare professionals.

* Iain MacDonald and Tom Downie, Edinburgh branch of the National Ankylosing Spondylitis Society
