There are still some places available on Lothian Recovery Network's “Realising Recovery through the Ten Essential Shared Capabilities” November training programme. Comprised of six modules delivered over four days in November, the broad aim is to equip participants with the knowledge, skills and values needed to work in a recovery focused way. Subjects covered include the origins of the international mental health recovery movement, the development of recovery initiatives and research in Scotland, and a range of self-management tools to use in recovery focused mental health practice. The programme is open to anyone with an interest in recovery in mental health, including people with lived experience of mental health difficulties and workers in the statutory and voluntary sectors.

| New SRN research explores the experience of recovery over time |

| Black women, recovery and resilience |
16 May In a specially commissioned article for SRN, researcher and psychiatric survivor Dr Jayasree Kalathil explores the issues of recovery and resilience from the perspective of black women interviewed for a 2011 study by Survivor Research and the Mental Health Foundation. While the article focuses on recent data from England, there are important lessons to be learnt everywhere, including Scotland. |
| What mental health practitioners talk about, when they talk about SRI 2 |
16 May Having recently facilitated Learning Networks on the use of the updated Scottish Recovery Indicator (SRI 2), SRN’s John McCormack was keen to hear from practitioners about their use of the tool and how it affects practice in the field. Here John shares his discussions with Lindsay Kerr and Jan Thomson who both work in NHS Ayrshire and Arran’s Mental Health Services. |
