Recovery is about a personal journey towards a meaningful and satisfying life,
towards living as well as possible, whatever symptoms or difculties are present. Theworkshops and courses we run aim to provide the tools to make this happen, to
help you become an expert in your own recovery or that of someone you care for.
Our college offers a learning approach that complements the existing services
provided by the Trust. Co-production is at the heart of everything we do. Every
course and workshop we offer is co-designed and co-run by trainers who have
experienced mental health difculties working alongside trainers from the mentalhealth professions.
