A new tool that helps people manage chronic pain brought on by musculoskeletal disorders (MSK) will draw on the expertise of an alliance of leading organisations in the field of rheumatology and arthritis care.
The Self-Care Hub is a digital platform that empowers people with long-term health issues to self-manage their conditions and take day-to-day control of their well-being by encouraging behaviour change.
The Hub's developer, Kirklees Council-owned LookingLocal, is partnering with the Musculoskeletal Solutions Alliance (MSA) to explore the Hub's application for arthritis and related conditions.
The Alliance, which brings together the British Society for Rheumatology, the National Rheumatoid Arthritis Society and Arthritis Care, supports and advises commissioning bodies, other medical groups and service providers.
