services provided by the Trust. Co-production is at the heart of everything we do. Every course and workshop we offer is co-designed and co-run by trainers who have experienced mental health difficulties working alongside trainers from the mental health professions.

New for this term: Peer Learning Advice Would you like support to choose which workshops and courses to enrol in? SLaM Recovery College is now able to offer 1:1 support to choose which courses meet your needs and interest you. Our Peer Learning Advisor is able to offer individual timeslots to develop an individual learning plan to guide your time studying at the college. If there are factors that might make attending courses more challenging, the Peer Learning Advisor can help you identify the things the college can do to make things easier for you.

Who are our courses for? Our courses are free of charge and open to: • •

People who use SLaM services Supporters (carers, family and friends) of the above



People who have been discharged from SLaM services within the last six months Supporters (carers, family and friends) of the above Volunteers and peer supporters working with SLaM SLaM staff (not students)

• • •

This is a pilot scheme for Autumn 2016 with limited timeslots. We hope to offer this service more widely in the future. If you would like to meet with the Peer Learning Advisor to do an Individual Learning Plan please call (020 3228 3643) or email ([email protected]) our office and we’ll try and make an appointment for you.

You don’t need to be referred by anybody to enrol at the college and you can choose whichever courses interest you or suit your needs. All we’d ask is that, if you do put your name down for a course, you make every effort to attend. Places for all our courses are in high demand, so if you

Rebuilding your life

Improvisation courses from the Comedy School The Comedy School, supported by SLaM’s Social Inclusion, Hope and Recovery Project (SHaRP) and SLaM Recovery College, are offering an exciting opportunity for 16 students who want to develop confidence, learn skills to work alongside others, and think on their feet, by using improvisation as the learning method. The seven-week course has funding from Comic Relief and is also supported by The London Community Foundation. No previous experience of improvisation or performing is required.

How to Manage the Transition from Secondary to Primary Care

If you wish to take part in the seven-week course you will first have to enrol on one of the two taster sessions. Following these, 16 students will be offered places on the full course.

Additional support

Our team can support you to fill out the form over the phone if you’d prefer. Telephone: 020 3228 3643

If you feel that you need additional help in getting to a class or in fully taking part, please let us know in the space provided on the enrolment form. We understand there can be things which make getting to and participating in education more difficult such as:

Cancellations Please let us know as soon as possible if you are unable to attend a course or workshop for which you have enrolled, giving as much notice as you can, so we can offer your place to another student.

• • • • • •

Feeling worried or stressed about being in groups and talking Having difficulty getting to places on time or using public transport Problems with concentration Dyslexia or other learning challenges Vision or hearing impairments Mobility difficulties or pain that prevents you from sitting comfortably

We will do our best to make it as easy as possible for you to take part. Volunteer travel buddies may be available to support you to attend our workshops and courses.

Course materials Please tell us in advance if you will require course materials in a more accessible format (i.e. in large print, on a coloured background or in a particular font you find easy to read) and we will do our best to meet your request.

Disabled access We try to ensure that the venues we use for courses and workshops are fully accessible and have disabled toilet facilities.

can seem like overwhelming odds. Hope, believing that a meaningful life is possible, is essential to recovery

Can a carer, friend, or family member come to the course to support me?

Control: making decisions about what you want to do in life, over the path your journey takes, the challenges you face and the help you receive

Absolutely, but we would ask that they take an active part and book onto the course by enrolling as a student too.

Do you provide refreshments?

Opportunity: the chance to do the things that you want to do, to do the things that make life worthwhile, and to have access to the roles, relationships and activities which are important to you

Like any other college, we do not provide students with free food and drink. Most, if not all, of the venues we use offer tea and coffee, although sometimes these may need to be purchased (depending on the venue’s facilities). We are not able to provide lunch, and it is advisable that you bring something with you if the course lasts all day – just in case the shops are a distance away from the venue. Remember: our courses are free of charge!

Will you pay my travel costs? Similarly we cannot reimburse you for your travel costs.

I still have questions. Is there someone I can talk to? Of course! If you would like to chat to us about these or any other issues, please call our office on 020 3228 3643.
