Flippin's Pain's ambitious campaign in north east England strikes gold at partnership awards event

Physiotherapist Cormac Ryan was celebrating last week (22 March) when a pain awareness initiative that’s close to his heart received a gold award at a prestigious HSJ Partnership Awards 2024 ceremony in London.

Professor Ryan is professor of clinical rehabilitation at Teesside University and a community pain champion for a public health initiative known as Flippin’ Pain. He helped to lead a series of public consultation events that impressed the judges who oversaw the Most Impactful Partnership in Preventative Healthcare category – one of 28 categories featured at this year's event.

Professor Ryan said: ‘We are so proud of this collaboration – it really does prove that by working together we can have more impact and truly affect positive change.'

He added: ‘Our objective with Flippin’ Pain has always been to “flip” people’s understanding of pain – to change the way they think about it, talk about it, and treat it, and this award win evidences that we’re doing just that, and in a really meaningful way.'

The gold award went to a partnership of organisations raising awareness of chronic pain and supporting those affected in the Tees Valley.
