HOPE Facilitator Role Description

About HOPE

The HOPE Programme (Help Overcoming Problems Effectively), and is based on a course developed by the University of Coventry.

HOPE is a programme to help local people build confidence to self-manage their long-term health conditions. This could include:

• Physical health such as pain relief.
• Mental ill health issues such as anxiety, stress and depression.
• People returning to work after a long absence.
• Parents/carers of children with additional or complex needs.

The programme helps to focus on the person, not as a long-term condition. It helps people to discover new strengths and rediscover old ones to keep themselves well. It also aims to boost self-confidence and resilience, to help cope better emotionally, psychologically and practically with any condition.
