In 2005 Susan was diagnosed with severe Rheumatoid Arthritis. Disappointed by the lack of support and information provided to her at the time, she struggled to find suitable resources and connection with fellow RA sufferers. One day she attended an arthritis workshop and there she met Dragon Claw Charity’s founder, Mike Gill. Susan’s journey with Dragon Claw began as a volunteer in 2014 and then that of treasurer until 2021.Since then, Susan has made it her mission to improve the journey for people living with autoimmune and inflammatory conditions, like Rheumatoid Arthritis. She fiercely continues her advocacy work and has extensive experience over the years in business development, relationship management and consulting in private organisations and government agencies. Susan is also a writer, career coach, entrepreneur, and campaigner who brings endless passion to whatever she focuses on.
