National pain management knowledge hub with learning and training materials aligned to a knowledge and skills framework.
What is the Chronic Pain Knowledge Hub?

Hosted on the site is the Interactive chronic pain informed toolkit - a resource for all Health and Social Care Professionals whether directly or indirectly providing support and management for people living with pain.
The site also provides information on specialist service provision, service improvement and peer support opportunities across Scotland.
