One thing that parents realise as their kids get older is that they need to take a step back and watch teenagers set their own agenda.
Managing a painful joint condition as a teenager means learning how to factor in exercise, good diet, school, socialising and stategies to manage pain, medication and mood.
To assist in this, we are arranging a group open to all young people with a rheumatology condition. The group will explore motivation and goal setting in a relaxed and fun way.
We are very excited that Jane Genovese has agreed to work with the group. Jane conducts regular workshops in schools on study techniques and goal setting.
The group will run at 9.30-10.30 on Saturday 29th August straight after the Saturday hydro session. These Saturday sessions will run through to the end of October.
