Back by popular demand, Caniad has partnered with Adferiad to offer another session of the Stepping into the Professional Area training course. This online course will take place on Tuesday, 1st July 2025.
This is a fantastic opportunity for service users who are interested in taking the next steps in their recovery journey and developing service user involvement or voluntary roles.
A Recovery College will offer free courses aimed at enhancing mental health and wellbeing for everyone, including service users, carers, professionals, and community members. These courses are co-designed and led by individuals with lived experience, promoting hope, empowerment, and meaningful connections.
There is a recovery college in Cardiff, and you can click on the link below to find out more information –
We have scheduled four in-person events in your local area:
You can book your place by scanning the QR code in the image above or completing our booking form by clicking here
We would like to invite people with Lived Experience of Mental Health Services, Learning and disabilities, Carers/Supporters in North Wales to come along and be involved at the events to help look at:
· How can we get better at listening to the people we serve?
· How can we build better community and service user relationships?
· What do we need to do to create honest and safe communications channels and spaces?
Your Voice, Experience and Knowledge are needed to develop and guide a new Service User and Carer Engagement and Involvement Strategy that embraces these questions and more.
The strategy is the plan for how people with lived experience and carers and learning disabilities can contribute, as partners, to the planning, delivery, and evaluation of Mental Health Services in North Wales
This is an ambitious project and needs as many people as possible with lived or living experience of Mental Health Services to be involved in its development.
Please do get in touch as well if you would like to hear more about the events or any other activities.
