We connect our members with the wider community to enable them to gain support and advice from the local services. We connect with the community to raise awareness of our condition and support group.
We help our members to be active by taking part in a number of activities. We offer Tai Chi sessions for beginners and for more advanced. We also have gentle walks and go swimming together.
We are always looking for opportunities to help our members. We network at local partnership events and take notice of services available to the group and making members aware of what is out there in the local community.
We run a number of workshops each month to enable members to learn about their symptoms and how to cope with them. We also have Symptom of the Month where we present a symptom and discuss ways to manage them.
There is life with Fibro and to help us sustain the group we give members the opportunity to use their skills and experience when they feel ready.
