Recovery and Wellbeing Academy

Welcome to the Recovery and Wellbeing Academy

We all have a mental health and wellbeing

Our Academy is not a School, College or Academy in the traditional sense of the word, you don’t need to be academically minded to attend and there are no tests, exams or assessments.

The Academy offers a wide range of courses and workshops designed to empower your mental health and wellbeing provided by a number of Partner organisations working together. Courses are delivered face to face and online via Zoom. All Academy courses and workshops are completely FREE OF CHARGE and open to anyone over the age of 18 living in Coventry and Warwickshire who wants to better manage or understand their mental health and wellbeing.  Friends, family, staff, and carers are encouraged to attend as we strongly believe in learning together to get the most out of the courses on offer.

Many of our courses are led by a tutor who has direct life experience of recovery and/or a tutor who has specialist professional skills and knowledge in that subject area. Both trainers will support students throughout. Our courses and workshops are designed with the expectation that many people attending may feel nervous, worried or may have difficulty concentrating. Our courses and workshops are designed to be informal, friendly and enjoyable and are delivered in safe, nurturing environments.

If you have further learning needs please let us know at enrolment so we can accommodate your specialist requirements. If you need help with accessing zoom please enrol onto our “Introduction to Zoom session” held at the beginning of each term. Our course categories mirror that of the exciting Dimensions of Health and Wellbeing, which is a free online tool providing self-care information to support people in Coventry and Warwickshire’s health and wellbeing. If you are unsure which courses or areas may benefit you, please use the Dimensions tool to create your own well-being report. This may help you decide which courses are good for you. Please visit: dimensions.covwarkpt.nhs.uk
