December 2009 saw the graduation of 11 more Wellness Recovery Action Plan (WRAP) Facilitators, bringing the total number of SRN supported Facilitators across Scotland to 40. WRAP is self-management tool and is currently being used across Scotland to support people to take more control over their own wellbeing and recovery. Facilitators in Lothian have supported over 100 people to develop their own Wellness Recovery Action Plans. While facilitators in Tayside, Glasgow and Ayrshire have all run at least two courses each supporting over 50 people to develop wellness plans. Last year SRN commissioned the National Centre for Social Research to evaluate the use of WRAP in self help groups with the findings due to be published in late 2010. This research will help widen our learning and inform future developments around WRAP. We will be reflecting on these research findings before offering further Facilitator training. SRN’s interest in self management goes beyond promoting WRAP and training Facilitators. We are keen to see people be the driving force in their own recovery and are committed to learning more about what supports recovery, as well as exploring other self-management tools. People interested in developing self management approaches might like to know about funding awards from the Long Term Conditions Alliance Scotland self management fund. Contact SRN for more information on WRAP or to find out about local delivery of WRAP training. Wellness Recovery Action Planning (WRAP) is a 'self-management' tool used around the world to help individuals take more control over their own wellbeing and recovery. It emphasises that people are the experts in their own experience and is based on the premise there are no limits to recovery. You can find more information about WRAP here.
