The ALLIANCE have reminded us that Self Management Week in 2019 will take place 7th – 11th October. They invite us to celebrate the benefits of self management and to spread awareness of this week.
Self Management Week takes place every year to raise awareness of and showcase the huge benefits self management can bring to people’s lives.
Self management is about people living with long term conditions being in ‘the driving seat’. It supports people to live their lives better, on their terms. Self management is not a replacement for services, it does not mean managing alone. It is a journey with the person at the centre, feeling able to take control of their life and conditions in partnership with support and services.
