Scottish Recovery Network

With growing recognition in national strategies like Creating Hope Together and the Mental Health and Wellbeing Delivery Plan, there’s a renewed commitment to embedding peer support across Scotland’s mental health system.

Drawing on insights from The Big Scottish Peer Support Survey, during this webinar, we’ll consider how peer support is being delivered to support mental health recovery and the impact it’s having.

We’ll also explore the need for a shared understanding of peer support and reflect on its potential to transform mental health services and support in the future.

Supporting peer leadership. This Peer Connects webinar is for anyone with an interest in the role of peer support, including Peer Workers, Service Providers, Policy-Makers, Planners, Commissioners and People with Lived Experience.
