Pain Concern and Covid-19
With the current pandemic causing uncertainty and confusion around the world, we will continue to keep our followers and supporters updated with any news relevant to people living with pain, their friends, family and healthcare professionals. We will strive to do our best to supply all our resources (magazines, leaflets, podcasts) while we can, assuming it is safe for our staff and volunteers to do so.
Unfortunately, we have had to make the difficult decision to suspend our telephone Helpline support for the immediate future. The Helpline is staffed by volunteers, some of whom have their own health issues. Given the current situation, we are not able to provide the Helpline service in the way that we would wish to.
People seeking support with their pain may continue to use our online community Health Unlocked Forum at healthunlocked.com/painconcern or contact our email help service at help@painconcern.org.uk.
We will strive to reinstate the service as soon as it is safe and viable to do so. But for now, stay safe, stay home, wash your hands and we will still be here on the other side, providing resources, support and advocating for those living with pain.
