A new Wellbeing and Recovery College has been launched in Herefordshire and Worcestershire to support people’s mental health and wellbeing.
The aim of college is to give people the tools, skills and understanding that they need to support their own wellbeing and recovery journey, whilst breaking down stigmas relating to mental health.
The college offers a wide range of courses and workshops designed to take each individual on a journey, however short or long, to find not only new skills, but the knowledge and understanding of what health and wellbeing and recovery means to them.
Vicky Hitch, team leader for Herefordshire and Worcestershire Health and Care NHS Trust: “It is estimated that around 1 in 4 people will experience some form of mental health difficulties at some point in their lives.
"Herefordshire and Worcestershire Wellbeing and Recovery College will give people the skills, knowledge and understanding to support their recovery, experience positive mental health and wellbeing and live a meaningful life.”
Anyone who is keen to learn about mental health, wellbeing or how to keep themselves well and support others is welcome to register for courses/ workshops.
See hwwellbeingandrecoverycollege.org.uk for details on how to register.
