Join us for a day of support and connection

We’re here to help you manage your health, work, wellbeing and independence.

Come along to one of our community days, and get a taster of how to move forwards with confidence.

Everything is tailored to you and what you want to achieve, including:

  • tips for managing health, pain, wellbeing and mobility from physios and health experts
  • support with finding and keeping work from our employment specialists
  • lifestyle advice from your local council, covering benefits, money and housing
  • opportunities to get involved in local volunteering, activities and groups.

At the event, you’ll meet our partners from the Jobcentre Plus, Citizens Advice, local councils, housing and adult learning teams, talking therapies, leisure centres, Shaw Trust employment teams, and many more.

What happens next

Our community days are part of our MSK Trailblazer programme. If you’re struggling to work and enjoy life because of joint, bone or muscle pain, you could get:

  • 1:1 coaching, from work that suits your needs and skills, to workplace adjustments
  • up to 6 months of health support, including physiotherapy and complementary therapies
  • 6 months of gym membership, improving your strength, mobility and overall wellbeing
  • holistic care that’s linked with your health teams, so work and health are easier to manage.

By taking part, you’ll see what support on our MSK Trailblazer programme could look like for you.

To come along, you’ll need to be:

  • on the waiting list for physiotherapy, with an invitation from your NHS health team
