Living with chronic pain can be isolating, but this peer support group offers a welcoming space to share experiences and find comfort among others who understand. The group is designed for individuals aged 16 and over, providing a safe environment to connect and support one another.
Occasional guest speakers, chosen by the group, will share insights and helpful information to empower members on their journey. Whether you want to listen or actively participate, this group welcomes you.
This is a free event held monthly, perfect for anyone seeking community and understanding around chronic pain.
The support group meets on the third Thursday of every month from 16:00 to 17:30. The sessions last 90 minutes, providing ample time for meaningful conversations and presentations.
Participants can expect a mix of peer discussions and occasional expert talks tailored to the group’s interests and needs. The group encourages sharing stories, coping strategies, and resources.
This event is suitable for anyone aged 16 and above who is affected by chronic pain, whether directly or as a carer.
Meetings take place at Springvale Library, located at 5 Hillcrest Grove, Springvale. The library is accessible by public transport and offers a welcoming, quiet environment.
The venue is equipped to support attendees with additional needs; please contact the organizers if you require assistance to participate fully.
Parking and local amenities are available nearby, making it convenient for families and carers to attend.
This is a peer-led support group with occasional invited speakers, so the format may vary slightly each month based on group preferences.
