About us

Bridges Self-Management is a social enterprise that fosters real cultural change in health and social care by creating a shared ethos of person-centred self-management support in a team's language, systems and processes.
One aspect of our work consists of co-producing self-management books and digital platforms with people who live with long-term conditions and their families. Individuals can access and use them as a standalone tool to boost their hopes and confidence to live the life they want with a long-term condition. Some services use these tools to promote an ethos of self-management support in their teams.
