Did you know that…
- 28 million people in the UK live with persistent pain (often called ‘chronic’ pain).
- Numbers are expected to rise by 32% before 2040 (a bigger increase than any other major condition).
- Pain is the no.1 barrier to being physically active for people with a health condition.
Living with pain can be tough. And supporting people who live with persistent pain can be tricky too. Myths and misinformation are commonplace, and pose a significant challenge. But Flippin’ Pain can help!
Endorsed by the British Pain Society and the European Pain Federation, Flippin’ Pain is a public health movement that explores the biological, psychological, and social aspects of pain. We’ll be focusing on this (often surprising) pain science and how it can help you in your role.
