Recovery is about a personal journey towards a meaningful and satisfying
life, towards living as well as possible, whatever symptoms or difficulties are
present. The workshops 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 difficulties working alongside trainers
from the mental health professions.
Who are our courses for?
Our courses are free of charge and open to:
•People who use SLaM services
• Supporters (carers, family and friends) of the above
• People who have been discharged from SLaM services within the last six
months
• Supporters (carers, family and friends) of the above
• Volunteers and peer supporters working with SLaM
• SLaM staff (not students)
No one needs a referral to enrol at the college and it’s up to you how few or
how many courses you sign up for. All we’d ask is that, if you do put your name
down for a course, you make every effort to attend. At the very least, please letus know as soon as possible if you can’t make it, so we can offer your place to
someone else – our courses are in high demand and it would be a shame for
places to go to waste.
