Helping your patients to help themselves

Healthcare ProfessionalThe aim of all our self-management courses is to give people the tools, techniques and confidence to manage their condition better on a daily basis. Our courses promote self-advocacy; we provide information about making informed choices and working in partnership with healthcare professionals.

What course participants say: 

Georgie - Newcastle

"My life has been transformed over the last two years and I can say with absolute certainty that I owe it all to the Expert Patients Programme."

Georgie Foord has had fibromyalgia since 1997 and was coping well with her exercise regime and careful diet. Attending an EPP course in 2003 helped her to achieve her goal of publishing her own work.

Do you remember that long hot summer of 2003? I was newly retired, bored and restless, drifting aimlessly through the weeks.
