Developing an Intervention to Improve Healthcare Professionals’ Knowledge, skills and Confidence when Supporting People Living with Cancer-related Pain: A Mixed-methods Study (DISC-PAIN)

August 17, 2026

Hi Everyone

As you may or not know, that I also live with cancer pain and for about the last year I have been part of the project organised and run by Martin Galligan PhD Student from King’s College London 

He has now developed a really useful website called Disc Pain (Discovering cancer Related Pain)

Martin says…

Cancer-related pain is complex and wide-reaching. It has a significant impact on the individual experiencing it and can result in reduced mobility, disrupted sleep, and low mood.  The effects of cancer-related pain also extend to the family member/informal caregiver and healthcare professionals caring for those living with cancer-related pain. They can experience feelings of helplessness which can have a negative impact on their physical and mental wellbeing. 

Checkout the website and the excellent information on it…and of course how to Get involved… go to this link How to get involved
