Managing aches and pain

Are you living with aches and pains and want to make some positive changes in your life, but don't know where to start?

Living with aches and pain seriously affects our well being. Being active and getting out and about can help reduce the pain caused by muscle, joint and bone problems. It can improve well being and even prevent related conditions from developing. But it can be difficult to get started or know where to go for help.

Our MSK Social Prescribing service is a collaboration between the voluntary sector and health to support you (and your carer if you have one) to become more active. We can link you into support and activity near you which can help improve your health and well being.

We work across Brighton, Hove and West Sussex in partnership with the Sussex MSK Partnership Central.

All referrals into the service are booked directly into clinics by the Sussex MSK Partnership Central.

Anyone who is interested in benefitting from this service will need to speak directly to their MSK clinician about a referral.
