Our courses

Our community courses are for adults (18+) who live, work, or study in Leeds. We also welcome carers, family members and friends.

We run a seperate programme for people who work in the Leeds Health and Care System. If you work for the NHS, a charity, or Leeds City Council, these staff courses are also free.

You don’t need a referral, a mental health diagnosis, or to be accessing a mental health service to join a course.

The Recovery College is not a mental health service, and we don’t offer one-to-one support. Instead, we provide wellbeing-focused learning that may sit alongside any other support you may be receiving.

Our courses are interactive and discussion-based. You can learn about mental health, share ideas, and try out wellbeing tools that may help you in everyday life.

Each course is co-led by people who have lived with their own mental health challenges, along with healthcare professionals and wellbeing trainers. Each course has at least two facilitators, so you hear different voices and experiences.

‘A friendly space to meet others, talk in small groups, reflect on what you need, and learn together.’

You can pick the courses you’re interested in. Our courses take place in community venues, not clinical settings and groups are kept small so everyone can take part.

At the start of each course, we create a group agreement together. It usually includes things like listening respectfully, only sharing what feels comfortable, and and keeping personal stories private.
