Patients and health professionals at a residential pain management programme in Bath talk about the pain management needs of younger people and the aims of the programme.

Paul Evans visits the Centre for Pain Services at the Royal National Hospital for Rheumatic Diseases at Bath to find out about the pain management programme there. Clinical Director Dr Lance McCracken explains how the programme helps people get on with their lives and we meet the patient group to learn about their experiences in living with pain, what brought them to Bath and the things they’ve learned during their time on the programme. We also hear about how the team at Bath provide specific services to younger people and how pain affects their families and sleeping habits.

In this programme:

* Bath Patient Group- Their Experiences

* Dr Lance McCracken- Pain Management Programme

* Dr Hannah Connel- Young People and Pain

* Sam Barton-Growing up in Pain
