Lauren Cannell

Tasmanian police officer and endurance athlete

Lauren has been a Tasmanian police officer for more than 20 years and participated in endurance sporting events such as Ironman races and ultra-marathons. After having a brain haemorrhage, followed by an accident where she was hit by a motor vehicle, Lauren experienced ongoing chronic pain long after her injuries healed. This led her on a journey of understanding pain, how it works and how to recover.

Curious about chronic pain? Lauren will speak about taking control of chronic pain and getting your life back after traumatic events.
