A TWO-day self-management event is being held in Coventry city centre for people with arthritis by UK charity Arthritis Action.

The event will explore approaches to better manage the symptoms of arthritis through healthy eating, physical therapy, mindfulness, exercise and pain management.

Attendees will be able to share their stories, questions and tips and learn from one another.

Taking place on Wednesday, April 26, and Thursday, April 27, the event is welcoming all interested and is free of charge though booking is essential.

Debbie Rose, an accredited self-management trainer who lives with arthritis, will present the event while director of development and membership Heather Baumohl, and group and event officer Leah Boylan will also be present.

The charity runs self-management events across the UK to offer people with arthritis the opportunity to share their experiences, ideas and feelings with others in a safe and friendly environment.

Shantel Irwin, chief executive of Arthritis Action, said: Around 10 million people in the UK live with arthritis.

It is the leading cause of pain and disability nationwide.

We run self-management events to not only raise awareness of the condition but ultimately to help people with arthritis take a more active role in managing their condition and be in control of their lives.

To register, email info@arthritisaction.org.uk or call 020 3781 7120.
