What others have said about this course
"[Understanding Mental Health Recovery] was amazing. I come from a non-mental health acute care nursing background and I didn’t realise that recovery from a mental illness was possible without professional intervention. The course has changed my whole perspective on mental health and I particularly liked the overwhelming sense of hope and possibility conveyed in the personal stories of recovery."
