Running - culturally focused - pain workshops in Bradford, this week. Lots of learning around faith/beliefs/philosophy & pain, & cultural resonance related to pain . Cannot thank participants enough for their insights & helping us to build a service that works for everyone !
As we roll out 'Understanding Pain', participants are able to express how their pain feels (not by a scale of 1 to 10) but how they experience it, through modelling, words, drawings - as we explore language around pain & if a scale works for them @ActAsOneBDC@leedsbeckett
are excited to introduce 'Understanding Pain'
Informal adult education opportunity for people with long term pain to understand more about their pain, how the body responds to it and how to access community based holistic support.
