Narrative Launch Film

On 9th October 2007, with the help of former Celtic Captain Neil Lennon, we officially launched the findings from the SRN Narrative Research Project entitled: 'Recovering Mental Health in Scotland'.

In an attempt to share the findings from the research more widely we created a film of the day to highlight the event as well as the key messages shared.

The film features Neil Lennon speaking about his personal experience of depression and how he has learned to cope with it. It also highlights the key themes that have emerged from the research which shows that people can and do recover from even the most serious and long-term mental health problems and that while recovery is a unique and individual process the research identified a number of common themes including the central role of hope which allowed people to see that it is possible to recover a life beyond illness.

For more information about the research and for a detailed description of the findings please visit our Narrative Research Project page.
