Musculoskeletal (MSK) Link Worker Project
A women-centred service in partnership with the Sussex MSK team for self-identifying women in Brighton and Hove, Crawley, Horsham & mid-Sussex CCG.
The MSK Link Worker Project runs in partnership with the NHS Musculoskeletal Team in Sussex. Our caseworker can provide up to ten 1-to-1 confidential sessions, offering emotional and practical support either remotely or within a safe, women-only space.
“I feel that I have somebody to help me to try to move forward with my life. I have had help in dealing with some of my problems.”
