Story
The Footsteps Festival team would like to thank all of you who supported the Festival throughout 2021 – both the amazing contributors and the participants who helped to make it such a success – and we hope you have had a safe, warm and comfortable Festive period.
As this year has been such a success we are delighted to announce that we are continuing the Footsteps Festival on into 2022!
This wouldn’t be possible without the huge support that we continue to receive, especially from those at Live Well With Pain team and the Physiotherapy Pain Association for which we are very grateful. We are so thankful for those running the background administration and organisation who have all given so generously of their time, and as ever we are indebted to the health care professionals and other experts who have joined us over the year and thank you all sincerely. Everyone involved in the Footsteps Festival has done so on a voluntary basis.
We are also very grateful for the donations we have received at our Just Giving page – we raised an extraordinary £2,430 this year and this will allow us to continue to provide content that is free at point of use. (the link is below, as ever, we appreciate any amount and shares of this and all our information is another valued way to contribute)
So in 2022 we’re back for another great year of free online events to champion our message that living well with pain is possible. It will be slightly scaled down with (probably!) one main flagship event a month, but there will be the familiar social and other events running alongside these.
This format also allows anyone who wishes to be involved behind the scenes to join a small group setting up and running each discrete short term event. We encourage those who have lived experience of persistent pain to join us in whatever capacity they desire – the more voices that are heard the better. We are, as ever, very open to suggestions for topics, or experts to present ideas – please don’t hesitate to contact us at this email address - info@footsteps-festival.co.uk
Please remember that many of our past events have been recorded and are available on both our website and YouTube – we have an amazing resource there now; for people living with pain, their loved ones and health care professionals etc – please do share the information as much as possible. The link is below.
Again – thank you all who came to any of our events and helped make this year such a success for the Footsteps Festival. We look forward to seeing you in 2022!
Kind Regards
The Footsteps Festival Team x
