Lancashire and South Cumbria LONG COVID PEER SUPPORT

This is a fully funded online and face-to-face peer support programme for people in Lancashire and South Cumbria with Long Covid. It is designed to help you manage your symptoms more effectively. Learn to listen to your body, slow down and leran from others in a similar situtaion.. 


Long Covid is still here, and for some of us like me, coming up to five years, you’ll know the frustration of the lack of understanding and the ongoing up and down of continuous symptoms, along with constantly trying to manage your energy levels and dealing with the challenges of chronic fatigue. We now run monthly  ME/CFS peer support group.  See Eventbrite page

Brain Health Breakthrough CIC are experts by experience and specialise in facilitating peer-support groups. The benefits of peer-support include being around people who understand you and your situation.


People who attend our groups have found the experiences of others who’ve also had Long Covid, very useful, in addition to the various physical and emotional benefits.

My credentials

Alongside having Long Covid, and knowing first-hand how it side-swipes you, your life and the ‘normal’ you, I have various other qualifications.


In my 20 years of experience in work, I’ve spent five years designing and running meditation groups, I’ve also been a therapist and worked in education for adult health and social care.


I set up the CIC, Brain Health Breakthrough, in 2018 and work as tirelessly as I can to help people who’ve had a brain injury enjoy life. Sometimes that’s with work experience, sometimes that’s coping with the impact a brain injury has.


I extended this work to help unpaid carers as they also experience issues that meditation can successfully treat. During this time I contracted Covid, and have been investigating how to manage this ever since; honing the meditations and approach to create the 8 week course you see here.


Qualifications:

BA Hons Education and Professional Development

Diploma in Transformational Therapy

Rapid Transformational Therapist

Licenced Peak State Therapist

Certificate in Education

A1 Assessors Award: Health and Social Care

You might be surprised to know..

 

I have a BA Hons in Education and Professional Development – in terms of why that is relevant, I know about the best ways to learn and teach. 


I’m also pretty savvy and results-focused. This is about impact and results for me, not something ‘nice and fluffy’ – it has to work.
