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.

Course descriptions

About the college

Please note that you also need to be aged 16 or over to come to any of our courses.

At the moment we aren’t able to offer the opportunity to enrol to anyone who isn’tincluded in the above categories. 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 let us 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.

Please see page 14 to find out how to enrol.

Need our help in any way?

Additional support

If you feel that you need additional help in getting to a class or in fully

taking part, please let us know in the space provided on the enrolment

form. We understand there can be things which make getting to and

participating in education more difficult such as:

Feeling worried or stressed about being in groups and talking

Having difficulty getting to places on time or using public transport

Problems with concentration

Dyslexia or other learning challenges

Vision or hearing impairments

Mobility difficulties or pain that prevents you from sitting comfortably

We will do our best to make it as easy as possible for you to take part.

Volunteer travel buddies may be available to support you to attend our

workshops and courses.

Course materials

Please tell us in advance if you will require course materials in a more

accessible format (i.e. in large print, on a coloured background or in a

particular font you find easy to read) and we will do our best to meet your

request.

Disabled access

We try to ensure that the venues we use for courses and workshops are

fully accessible and have disabled toilet facilities.



18

If you have more specific access requirements, please tell us in the space

provided on the enrolment form.

Can a carer, friend, or family member come to thecourse to support me?

Absolutely, but we would ask that they take an active part and book onto

the course by enrolling as a student too.

Do you provide refreshments?

Like any other college, we do not provide students with free food and

drink. Most, if not all, of the venues we use offer tea and coffee, although

sometimes this may need to be purchased (depending on the venue’s

facilities). We are not able to provide lunch, and it is advisable that you

bring something with you if the course lasts all day – just in case the shops

are a distance away from the venue.

Remember: our courses are free of charge!

Will you pay my travel costs?

Similarly we cannot reimburse you for your travel costs.

I still have questions. Is there someone I can talk to?

Of course! If you would like to chat to us about these or any other issues,

please call our office on 020 3228 3643.



Hope: sometimes it is difficult to live hopefully in the face of what

can seem like overwhelming odds. Hope, believing that a meaningful

life is possible, is essential to recovery

Control: making decisions about what you want to do in life, over

the path your journey takes, the challenges you face and the help

you receive

Opportunity: the chance to do the things that you want to do, to

do the things that make life worthwhile, and to have access to the

roles, relationships and activities which are important to you
