evidence: Data we released in Northern Ireland reveals that anxiety is taking a toll on people who are living with long-term health conditions, as 90% are experiencing anxiety that interferes with their daily lives. Polling of 1,000 adults in Northern Ireland (conducted on our behalf by Opinium) found almost four in ten adults (38%) in Northern Ireland who are living with a long-term condition felt anxious to the extent that it stopped them from doing what they’d like or need to do. This compares to 23% of the general adult population of Northern Ireland.

That’s why we’ve been working with Healthy Living Centre Alliance across Northern Ireland on the Mental Health for Better Days project. The project has co-designed an evidence-based mental health well-being module within the Healthy Living Centres Alliances’ award-winning Better Days Pain support programme."
