Welcome to Sunderland Recovery College offering a range of free recovery focused educational courses for people with lived mental health experience, their friends and family.

We envisage the recovery courses will develop and increase over time and we look forward to your help in doing this.

We had a wonderful time at our Christmas social in Fulwell yesterday. It was fantastic to welcome so many of you for an afternoon of festive snacks, prize bingo, tombola, a Christmas quiz, and a brilliant performance from our singing group.

It was lovely to see everyone come together and share in the celebrations. Wishing you all a joyful and peaceful Christmas, from everyone here at the Recovery College.❤️
