Learn more about living with
pain at our free event
PEOPLE living with persistent pain are
being invited to learn more about how they might live with it better. The
Community Pain Service, which works with patients and carers in the Southport
and Formby areas, is holding a free information event, on Tuesday, 25 April
2017.
"Chronic pain affects up to 40% of our local population and can cause severe
disability and distress. Our evening meetings are about developing understanding
of how pain works and how best it can be managed. It's freely open to anyone
with pain or who pain impacts on, such as partners, family members, carers and
healthcare professionals. We'd love to meet you and it's our hope we can better
understand what's really needed locally." said Dr Chris Barker, clinical
lead for the service, which is based at Ainsdale Centre for Health and
Wellbeing.
The event will be held between 6.30pm and 8.30pm, at St John Stone's RC Parish,
7, Sandbrook Way, Woodvale, Southport, PR8 3RN.
