A public health initiative, Flippin’ Pain, is coming to Whitby on Tuesday May 9, as part of a regional tour to support people living with chronic pain and help them regain control of their lives.

Aimed at those with chronic pain, their loved ones, and relevant healthcare professionals, the tour will feature an interactive pop-up village, the ‘Brain Bus’.

A peloton of 25 cyclists – including internationally-renowned pain experts and those who live with pain - will concurrently be clocking up miles across the area while fundraising for national charity, Pain Concern.
