Talking 'bout a resolution

Written to twenty five Welsh Assembly members today. I enclosed a copy of the Chronic Pain Coalition Manifesto - 5 vital signs. There is an active colaition in England and Scoltand but not here in Wales, where the situation is at least as acute.


Health is devolved to the Welsh Assembly so its here that they control the £4bn annual budget. Must be some wiggle room here surely? Considering chornic pain affects 7.8 million people in the UK (twice as many as diabetes).


I've asked each AM to scan the manifesto. Hopefully this will raise awarness and raise an interest amoung one or two.

Fingers crossed.
