STAGES (Support Training, Advice, Guidance and Educational Services) will host the event at Kingswood Neighbourhood Centre on Sunday, September 22.

The charity was founded in 2013 by Katie Read when she could not find the right support when struggling to cope with her husband’s agoraphobia and alcohol dependency.

Registered disabled the 50-year-old has been supporting clients full time while living with fibromyalgia and multiple joint osteoarthritis.

Using alternative therapies to help herself and to support clients, Katie has brought together a number of practitioners under one roof to provide a one-stop shop.

As well as talks to boost well-being there will be a variety of stalls and sessions including meditation, herbal nutrition, massage and yoga.

Katie said: “We have an awesome line-up so far for the day. We’ve had events before but this will be the biggest and the best so far.

“People can come down to the centre and find out what we’re all about.

“We are a solution focused group - we focus on what we can do not what we can’t do.

“Addiction and chronic pain all impact on mental health. It’s a personal passion of mine to help.”

Entry to the event at Kingswood Neighbourhood Centre is free, with a donation bucket on the door.
