Do you run a support group for people with chronic pain in your area?

Are you a member of one?

We are trying to keep an up-to-date interactive map of UK-based support groups on our website, so people living with pain can always find support near them. If you know of a support group in your area, please email us at info@painconcern.org.uk with the details, and we will add it to our database.

Thanks,

The PC team

Hiya. The group is held in Kettering at Open Doors opposite Greg's more or less on Fridays 1p.m. till 6p.m. You will certainly be welcomed. If you look on the web page Northamptonshire chronic pain support you will find more information. Hope to meet you soon. I will be there tomorrow. Xx

I do not know of any Support Groups close to were I live and it could be useful at times, even more so as I am now a carer as well for my wife a stoke victim herself. Hermes.

I’ve tried to find a pain support group without success. I rely on PHN support groups online which are fantastic, I would be absolutely lost without them. A massive shout out to PHN Chronic Neuralgia Support Group, PHN Support Group and yourselves!’

Thank you KatieRL for your post as I was previously not aware of the PHN support groups you mention. I have had PHN since a bout of shingles in January this year which shows no sign of clearing up. I also have AF and heart failure so have been following these as well as the chronic pain site on Health Unlocked and have posted on those about PHN amongst the other issues I have but your post is the first time I have seen PHN mentioned. I have sent a request to join the Facebook group.
