When a person is affected by a mental health challenge, life can change. Mental health recovery is a deeply personal unique process of building on one’s attitudes, values, thoughts, feelings, actions, goals, skills and roles. It is a way of living a satisfying, hopeful and contributing life, regardless of the presence of mental health. The Finding My Way programme is for people who want support to explore their recovery. It is peer-facilitated so each week we will share and support one another. All discussions will be led by people that have self-experience of mental health recovery.

Aims of the Course

  • Experience Peer Support
