Jane’s story

I was introduced to the Recovery College by my support worker. Immediately I was put at ease – I didn’t have to explain anything – the patience and empathy was comforting. I felt relaxed and accepted. The college oozed positivity. The tutors are amazing. At any time they are on hand for additional help and support. What the Recovery College has done has offered me hope and ways of coping. The sanctuary of the college has given me the time, space and safe environment I need. Since starting at the college I have changed. I trust the Recovery College. I have faith in them. They know what they are doing and they know the needs of people like me. I am absolutely certain they are the way forward in the treatment of mental health – the missing link between doctors, therapy and the person – me. I am quite certain I wouldn’t be where I am without this remarkable place
