Get support at the Tavistock Pain Cafe

But wait… what's a Pain Café?

The Tavistock Pain Café is a local peer support group for people with pain. The aim is to create a space (sometimes in-person, sometimes online) for you to meet, learn and share tips and experiences.

You are not alone.

Your Pain Cafe Host Barista

Kevin Feaviour
Kevin Feaviour loves talking with people and learning through conversation. I feel that we all have something to offer and we can all contribute to our and others well being. We all have a part to play. Shared experience is so valuable to understanding and through building trust we can develop our knowledge skills and confidence to be more in control of our lives amongst others. I also like fun ways of doing things and enjoying activities that we do kevin.feaviour@imagineif.net

Tips Jar

Who's invited?: Anyone living with pain in the area. The baristas have been trained in the 10 Footsteps and will decide who to invite. These groups should grow organically by word-of-mouth.
How often do you meet?: We aim to meet in person, at regular times each month. Each pain cafe has their own set reoccurring day - please see the separate pages to check for your town. In addition to in person cafe's, we also have online digital cafes which you can join remotely.
Is its free?: Yes! You might want to buy some coffee and a cake though.
My local café has no events: If nothing is available we run an online county-wide café which everyone is welcome to join.
