Action for Pain is a 6-week group course that focuses on a holistic approach to chronic pain, taking into account how different areas of an individual’s life could be affecting their pain experience. This group is facilitated by an NHS GP specialising in chronic pain and Health All Round staff.
They will ensure that lived experience is at the forefront of this course, with opportunities for their volunteers who have already completed the course to share a little about their own recovery from chronic pain. They also offer monthly Living Well cafés as a peer support space for people following completion of the course.
More information can be found on their website, including a video featuring some of their dedicated volunteers speaking about their experiences with the group.
