The support group is run for patients with chronic pain and is run solely by patients with chronic pain. Our main objectives are to bring people together who are suffering from this debilitating condition within a 'safe' environment, to be able to share concerns and ideas, build friendships and obtain up-to-date information about handling their pain.
CPSG is a warm, welcoming friendly group who give support; being supported is what we are all about. Seeing the person is our main focus, not their condition. The atmosphere created is a warm hearted sociable blend to encourage positive feelings and for you to know you are not alone. All age ranges (18+) and genders, carers, partners and guest visitors are welcome.
If you are not already a member or are a lapsed member and would be interested in joining the group then why not come along and meet us? We would love to see you!
Take a step forward to improve your wellbeing and come along and join us to see what we are all about. Make friends with people in a similar position as you. Think about what you would like to achieve from becoming a member of the group and the type of support needed.
CPSG has an active Facebook group page. If you would like to be able to access this page and interact with others please email for the details. This is one way to connect with others, share experiences, be there for each other, be given any relevant information, reminders of meetings and speakers, locations and times, materials to bring to crafty, to help relieve isolation and loneliness or just to have a laugh to brighten your day. It is a private group however anyone living in pain can find the page and request to join in.
ZOOM - aids in helping others by bringing people closer together, to help connect to others and to communicate with each other whether it be on a reular basis or maybe occasionally. Some people have become more confident and talk more with others, most have found that they have more friends than they realised. Many have said how nice it is to get to know each other better, people they maybe only see once a month.Through difficult times this became a lifeline for many. Connecting with others is vitally important when experiencing long term conditions that may, at times prevent you seeing others in person.
